Rare Geecrack Trapezium Glass Death Adder

Mid-layer Swimming Specific Rod Pro guide Taku Ishiguro, based in Lake Biwa's Kohoku region, is known for his specialty: Mid-layer Swimming. This technique has helped him land over 100 bass exceeding 50cm annually.

This remarkably simple yet explosive fishing method is gradually spreading, primarily around Lake Biwa's Kohoku area...

(Set a 1/16oz jig head with a 6-inch straight worm. Full cast. Reel in at a constant speed within a specific depth range...) He emphasizes that rod selection is crucial for mid-layer swimming. This includes rod power capable of full casting heavy jig heads with swimming worms, and rod length for long casting distances. Furthermore, a balanced rod taper and weight are essential for easily creating action during rhythmic mid-layer swimming over extended periods.

And most importantly, the rod material must be fiberglass. Why a fiberglass rod?

Firstly, the smooth taper characteristic of fiberglass allows for the use of thinner lines, which reduces line pressure on the bass, increases casting distance, and improves lure action. Secondly, the properties of fiberglass blanks are necessary to allow big bass to bite deeply without suspicion, especially considering the unique way they often bite from the tail upwards during mid-layer swimming.

● Unbelievable lightness and responsiveness for a 7ft fiberglass rod.
● Flexibility that ensures a solid hookset.
● Butt power that reliably brings in even large bass.
