Duel Hardcore Monster Shot (S) 65mm

The smallest model in Duel's Hardcore Monster Shot (S) line, this 65mm sinking pencil weighs 25g and shares the range's high-strength, thick-walled body with through-wire construction, rated for both rock shore and offshore use. It runs a #4 split ring and #4 hook, casts upward of 100m, and works across all depth ranges.

Scaled down for micro-bait feeding patterns and finicky fish, its heavyweight-for-size build still delivers the long casting distance the Monster Shot family is known for. A horizontal rolling fall imitates a stunned, dying baitfish, while its water-grabbing face and ultra-low centre of gravity handle fast-to-slow retrieves, one-pitch jerking and skipping — effective on fish keyed onto small prey such as shrimp and crab.
