About this piece
The Smith Gunship 36F is a compact surface minnow plug designed for saltwater light game fishing, primarily targeting mebaru (rockfish). Its body shape imitates a small squid, with an offset lip to suggest tentacles and oversized eyes for a realistic baitfish profile despite the slightly fat silhouette.
