"Candy" bait?

Post by Finnz922 » Tue Feb 28, 2023 10:42 am

Did anyone else see lures in the Seminole event for the elites? Kyoya Fujita used it. Said it was a prototype bait. I've never seen this and what is it trying to imitate?

Not sure if it is the bait he used but it is almost identical to the OSP "Dice Rubber". No clue what it is trying to imitate.

Daiwa often has bait manufacturers produce lures for them. Quite a few of the OSP guys are also sponsored by Daiwa.

I’d love to try these little dice but they always seem to be sold out everywhere. I’ve found some of the bigger sizes from the original producer but am looking for the more finesse 12mm size

You can make your own out of junk plastics and jig skirting strands with a needle.

This is what I did, I think I have a post about it somewhere on here. $15 for 4 baits is a little too rich for my blood
