Bassday Mononofu 45S

Bassday Mononofu 45S (もののふ 45S) is a native-trout sinking minnow from Bassday's Mononofu series, built for mountain-stream, upper-reaches, and mid-stream native-trout fishing.

The Mononofu series was designed around what Bassday calls "sculptural beauty" — a hand-crafted-feeling lure worthy of being remembered alongside a beautiful native trout, built with the honesty and courage suggested by its name, "mononofu" (warrior).

Like the 50S, the 45S has no quirks in its action. Though lighter than the 50S at 4.0g, its high internal weight ratio lets it fly like a bullet to a pinpoint target. Rather than a simple downsized follow-up lure, it is set slightly tail-heavy compared with the 50S so it reaches the target depth quickly after landing, while its compact body and oversized lip (shared with the 50S) let it start swimming smoothly and immediately, allowing a fast-tempo, pinpoint approach.

Size: 45mm. Weight: 4.0g. Hook: #14. Ring: #0.
