Description

The Apia Punch Line 45 is the smallest model in the Punch Line sinking pencil line, measuring 45mm and weighing 3.4g. It carries the range's signature retrieve resistance down into a light-game size, running an S-shape slalom with a rolling fall on the drop, and is rigged with #14 twin hooks (BKK SPEAR-20 SS).

It works both a straight retrieve and a lift-and-fall, covering everything from the surface down to the bottom, which makes it a useful jig-head-style search bait for light rock and harbour fishing as well as a straightforward introduction to plugging.

Information

The swimming action

The Punch Line is a sinking pencil built around a flat-faced head that gives constant contact through the retrieve, tracing a gentle S-curve slalom with a rolling fall on the pause, letting anglers read water flow and current changes through the rod.

When to throw it

It covers harbours, shallow ground, surf and rocky shorelines, working water 3m deep or less, and suits situations from bait-fish schools and worm hatches (bachi) up to open surf and river-mouth seabass. Anglers who fish the same marks regularly tend to keep one rigged as a default option for exactly these conditions rather than switching in and out.

How to work it

Work it with a straight retrieve, a drift, or a slack-line fall depending on conditions; the rolling, horizontal fall on the pause gives fish a long look in slack current, and the flat head lets you feel changes in flow through the rod.

The setup it likes

A 7.5-9ft seabass or surf spinning rod scaled to the lure's weight, a 2500-4000 reel, 10-16lb braid and a fluorocarbon leader of 14-20lb suit the range from the smallest to the largest model. This combination keeps the outfit light enough for repeated casting through a full session while leaving enough backbone in reserve to turn a solid fish away from structure.
