About this piece
The Daiwa Gekkabijin Chibiuo 42 is a small swim bait designed specifically for mebaru (rockfish) in light game fishing. It features an extra-small shad tail that produces subtle micro-vibrations when retrieved slowly, and a natural forward-leaning fall with tail quiver when paused. The pre-rigged design includes a removable hook clip for quick body changes and a nail sinker hole for additional weight.
