Long Cast Basket Fishing, Large Capacity, Adjustable Size, Live Bait

This item was created by me using a 3D printer and by hand.
It has been used without any issues in actual fishing.
Most of the plastic (PLA) is 3D printed, while the stainless steel eye and the spring for opening and closing the basket are handmade.

The basket is designed to open upon water entry.
To prevent wasted time due to the basket not opening, and to ensure it opens as easily as possible without hindering fishing, this design was created.
Additionally, the spring is designed not to bounce up excessively, preventing leader entanglement.

The bottom basket has a screw lid, allowing you to insert weights of your preferred size inside.
Weights of a certain size can be inserted as is. I personally insert round sinkers as they are.
For weights that don't fit, you can shape them by hammering them down without needing to melt them.
The item weighs approximately 50-55g.

The concept is large capacity, and subjectively, it holds more than twice the amount of chum compared to commercially available Apollo Ippatsu Kago.
The diameter is also large at approximately 5cm, making it very easy to load chum.
You can attract fish by dispensing a large amount of chum in a single cast.
It is also ideal for live bait fishing.
