Description

The Argo 105 is Apia's original-size topwater pencil plug, 105mm and 16g, floating, fitted with a 2-hook (#5) setup using BKK FANGS-62UA hooks. A twin-cup nose produces a splash and V-wake on a straight retrieve, while magnet weight-transfer gives stable casting distance and a near-horizontal floating posture for a reliable dog-walk action beyond the usual pencil-bait playbook.

It is built for seabass, with Apia also noting results on Chinu (black seabream) and small pelagic species, and its dive-then-glide action holds a thin "skin" of water just under the surface to draw bites even when the strike range looks tight.

Information

The swimming action

Argo is Apia's topwater pencil plug: a twin-cup nose throws a splash and V-wake on a straight retrieve, while magnet weight-transfer gives long, stable casting distance and a near-horizontal floating posture for a reliable dog-walk action.

When to throw it

A daytime and low-light topwater bait for seabass working baitfish on the surface — river mouths, flats and open coast — particularly effective during mullet and shad runs.

How to work it

Walk-the-dog with rhythmic rod twitches to keep the V-wake and splash going, pausing briefly between sequences; a straight retrieve alone will also produce the wake at a gentler pace.

The setup it likes

Suits a medium-power seabass spinning rod (M power for the larger sizes, ML for smaller), a 3000–4000-size reel, 12–16 lb fluorocarbon or 1.0–1.5 PE braid with a fluorocarbon leader.
