About this piece
The Daiwa Gekkabijin Shirasu Beam 2.8 is a soft plastic lure designed for light saltwater game fishing. Mimicking a small shirasu (baby sardine), its ultra-soft body and streamlined shape create a delicate, natural wobbling action that entices finicky fish in tough conditions.
Key features
- Ultra-soft elastomer body (hardness 13°) for lifelike, sensitive action
- Sleek, unadorned silhouette without scales or ribs for subtle vibration
- Core infused with concentrated sardine oil for long-lasting scent attraction
- 2.8-inch length increases surface area, slows fall rate, and enhances floating feel
- Pack of 10 baits in Weak Glow Pink, ideal for low-visibility situations
Best for
- Finicky saltwater species like sea bass, horse mackerel, and rockfish
- Finesse techniques requiring slow fall and delicate darting presentations
- Inshore and estuary environments with clear or pressured water
- Pairing with a light jig head for a realistic shirasu imitation
