About this piece
The Valleyhill Giver is a 4.8-inch soft plastic worm developed by guide Tetsushi Okumura for the 'Gyangyan' fishing technique. It features a unique panic action with braking effect, making it effective both in vertical and horizontal presentations. The worm rolls its body and shakes its tail on the fall, and jumps upward on the jerk.
