Description
Integrating advanced hydrodynamic design with extensive field testing, the Daiwa Kohga Bay Rubber Free Slider Lure is the perfect sliding lure developed specifically for New Zealand Snapper. Its hydrodynamic keel design increases the lures stability and sink rate ensuring optimal presentation in the correct area of the water column. The sliding head features a polished ceramic tube with an extremely smooth surface to efficiently dissipate heat, protecting the leader as the lure slides. The tapered head design enables the lure to adapt to high and low current situations to maintain optimal lure action. Holographic stickers reflect light creating flash and increasing interest.
Securely attached skirt is glued in place, whipped with thread and then glued again to increase longevity. Kevlar Assist Cord with a fluorocarbon core provides optimal hook placement and prevents hooks snagging on the leader. The Kohga is finished with ultra sharp Japanese SaqSas hooks to ensure a secure hook set with minimal pressure. Constant movement is critical to maximising lure efficiency. The Kohga Bayrubber Free lure provides the solution, whereby all components are separated allowing them to move freely without restriction.
Colour Recommendations:
- Sakura Glow is recommended for use during early morning and is the ideal lure selection when fishing in low light conditions and/or deep water
- Kohga Pink is recommended for use during mid-morning and is the ideal lure selection for overcast weather conditions or average water clarity
- Kohga Orange is recommended for use during mid-afternoon and is the ideal lure selection for clear conditions or when fish activity is variable
- Chartreuse is recommended for use during the evening and is the ideal lure selection for periods of low activity or when looking for a reactionary contact
How to Fish with the Daiwa Kohga Bay Rubber Free Slider Lure:
- Select the lightest head weight that can easily make contact with the bottom
- Select the most appropriate colour based on time of day/water conditions/personal preference
- In high current situations rig the lure with the thin side facing forwards. In low current situations rig the lure with the thick side facing forwards
- Keep contact with the lure while it is descending to the bottom
- Retrieve the lure slowly, approximately 1 handle revolution per second is sufficient
- Reference your sounder, keep the lure moving within the correct area of the water column
- If you feel a contact do not strike, continue to retrieve the lure slowly
- The ultra-sharp Japanese SaqSas hooks will penetrate with minimal pressure
- Once you feel the weight of the fish, apply moderate pressure through the rod
- Using a sensible drag setting, allow the rod and reel to absorb any sudden movements
- Enjoy the fight, allow the fish to tire while smoothly retrieving line when possible
