Staying true to our roots of innovative baits that absolutely catch fish, we bring you the Yamatanuki. While this is its first time being available in the US, it has been a very popular bait for the Japanese Yamamoto lineup for years. The Yamatanuki is credited as the bait that started a trend of heavy soft plastic lures that have become popular in the US in recent years with offerings from Japanese manufacturers.

While the 4.25″ Nuki is longer than the original 3.5 incher, it maintains the same diameter. This allows the lure to have a larger profile, but not be so thick that it inhibits the hookup ratio or action. Speaking of action, this longer Nuki has even more of a shimmy on the fall than the original! It drives fish flat crazy.
