I don't know if I should be showing you this yet, but here's a new Japanese-inspired bait. Thoughts?

Where do put the hook? How much does it cost? Never say never.

I like it! Big fan of gray colored minnows.

As a devotee of Japanese baits....I only care about what it looks like underwater! LOL 😆

Its all about the action, baby!

Looks like it's going to take a 3.0 ewg and worked like a soft jerk bait.

We'll be all over them..... of course.

What makes it different than similar baits on the market?

That's a strange looking urchin style bait.

Looks like $8 / 5 pk. to me. what's the length?

Looks similar to the Raid Fishroller.

Feel like I'd either use it like a soft plastic fluke with an EWG or bladed jig trailer

It's about 4 1/2"

As an avid buyer of JDM baits, I only care the cost. If it’s less than $20/3pk, I’m out…

I’ll give them a try……… next year.

I see potential with a 3/0 keel weighted hook skipped under the marina docks.

Looks to me like something YUM would make.

You gotta glue in your own eyes? 😂

I’d like to know more about them. How soft is the plastic? How much do they weigh? What is the action like in the water? What is their intended purpose?

They do look interesting.

Looks like a fluke. That's how I'd rig it.

I was told this is one lure, not a set of four, some kind of soft A rig. If it is 4 lures packaged together, I would assume it would be just another soft plastic minnow, only no eyes. If it is meant to be fished together as shown in the picture, lord help us, the Monkey has won.

I've bought and forgot many, many minnow look soft baits, but the one always left standing and holds my loyalty is the Zoom Super Fluke.

I like it! Any word on if, or when it may be available stateside?

When you get some samples Glenn, send a pack my way and I'll write a review after I 'test' them out.

Don't send them to Papa Joe. Send them to me and I'll write a review and a song about them.
