Description

HILACK is Buddy Works' rear-weighted sinking pencil, built with a constant 98mm body across three tuned weights (24g/30g/35g) so anglers can rotate models for casting distance, retrieve speed and depth without changing the bait's baitfish-like silhouette. Developed originally as a sea-run cherry salmon (sakuramasu) lure in Hokkaido, the model was found equally effective on flounder (hirame) and is now sold in colourways for both species.

This 35g model is the heaviest and highest-specific-gravity of the three, delivering an average cast distance over 100m and holding its line through wind and chop in deep water and rough surf conditions where lighter sinking pencils lose control.

This listing stocks 9 colourways: KTI Katakuchi Iwashi (from the sakuramasu lineup), plus CPP Champagne Pink, MDP Mid Pink, BL2 Blossom II, HCC Hade Chartreuse, MPK Matte Pink, AJI Aji, BKS Black Sapphire and HAC High Appeal Clear from the hirame lineup.

Information

The swimming action

HILACK is a rear-weighted sinking pencil with a constant 98mm body across its 24g, 30g and 35g sizes, so the bait's silhouette and roll stay the same as the weight changes. Each size trims cast distance, sink rate and retrieve depth without altering the baitfish profile.

When to throw it

Originally developed in Hokkaido for sea-run cherry salmon (sakuramasu), and equally effective on hirame (flatfish), it suits open surf beaches and river mouths across a range of depths and current strengths, from shallow, slow water up to deep, wind-affected surf.

How to work it

Fished on a straight retrieve, using rod tip height and retrieve speed to hold the bait in the target depth band. The 35g size casts over 100m and holds its line and depth through wind, chop and rough surf conditions where lighter sizes lose control. Rotate between the three weights to match conditions without changing the bait's action or profile.

The setup it likes

Suits a 9–10'6" surf spinning rod matched to the 35g model, a 3000–4000 size reel, PE 1–1.5 braid and a 20–25 lb fluorocarbon leader, stepping up rod power and line class for the heavier sizes.
