PUNCHLINE 130
*A heavy-weight sinking pencil designed to conquer open ocean fields, balancing casting distance and swimming action.
*Matches sea bass on rocky shores where presence is essential even in surf and turbulent waters where casting distance is required.
*Swims well even with a slow retrieve, appealing to fish with pauses and feeding motions using the wake.
*The through-wire construction makes it durable enough for use in harsh conditions such as rocky shores, and is also suitable for targeting bluefin tuna.

The "PUNCHLINE 130" is a lure that has caught many trophy fish, including 90cm+ fish, in places like the mouth of the Omono River, where the current is strong and the bite zone is far away, the shallow Tenno Surf, and the rocky shores of the Oga Peninsula, which become a harsh environment in winter. Why is the Punchline 130 so effective? It's not just about casting distance as a heavy-weight sinking pencil; it incorporates the essential elements of a lure, such as swimming action and balance. By utilizing its characteristic backslide fall, it's possible to cast it into strong currents like rapids or extended white water caused by swells, and then feed out the line to pass it through the eddies further in. When you need to approach a situation where the target range is deeper, a floating lure would be impossible due to being swept away by wind or the upstream current. The same is true for slow-sinking lures. If it sinks too quickly, drifting becomes difficult. The Punchline 130 makes such difficult approaches possible. With a weight of 36g, it can also drift in the middle to bottom range, and its natural, non-fluttering action makes it easy to trigger a bite from even the most finicky, large fish. Furthermore, the #2 two-hook system should provide anglers with a sense of security when it comes to power fishing.
