About this piece
The Daiwa Morethan Solaria 85F is a floating minnow designed by Yukio Ohno for targeting sea bass in super-shallow rivers, tidal flats, and harbors. Its high-bodied profile senses subtle current changes, triggering predatory responses from wary fish. The lure combines a slow-pitch wobbling-roll action with a sharp darting jerk, covering everything from close-quarters sight-fishing to long-distance pinpoint presentations.
Key features
- Floating design runs just 0-0.5 m deep, ideal for super-shallow water.
- Optimized weight balance delivers outstanding casting distance (avg 57.7 m, max 58.5 m) from a compact body.
- Slow-pitch wobbling-roll action excels in slow to medium currents.
- Aggressive jerking produces an erratic darting action that mimics fleeing baitfish.
- Equipped with strong ST-46 #5 treble hooks and #3 split rings for solid hooksets.
- Eye-catching Lemon Soda Mint finish with a blue eye appeals to both fish and anglers.
Best for
- Targeting sea bass (suzuki) in rivers, tidal flats, and harbors.
- Fishing super-shallow water where stealth and minimal dive depth matter.
- Anglers who need a long-casting floating minnow for covering water or reaching distant structure.
