About this piece
The TIMON Pepino MR is a slim-profile crankbait designed by Shinichi Takizawa, featuring a unique cucumber-like curved body that reduces silhouette visibility from the trout's perspective. Its high-visibility fluorescent two-tone finish combines normal glow and red glow for maximum appeal, especially effective in clear water and tough conditions. The carefully tuned weight balance and hook eye position allow for effective action even during ultra-slow retrieves, making it a go-to bait for pressured urban waters and tournament scenarios.
