About this piece
The Imakatsu GilSoft 130 is a bluegill-profile jointed swimbait, the first release in Naoyuki Mihara's WAZAMONO series. Its soft plastic body compresses on strikes for improved hookup ratios, while the jointed construction delivers unique side-to-side darting action. Effective year-round, it excels in both cold-water pause tactics and high-season aggressive retrieves.
