Description
The issei 海太郎 レベリングヘッド早掛 (Umitaro Leveling Head Hayagake) keeps the same horizontal-posture bullet-shaped head as the standard Leveling Head but switches to a short-shank, open-gape hook designed to hook up reliably ("オープンゲイプでとにかく掛かる" — hooks up no matter what) without needing a keeper to hold the worm. It suits both aggressive, suction-biting species like aji and the short, hesitant strikes typical of rockfish such as mebaru, with a large-diameter eye for easy rigging in low light and a sharp point for penetration.
This listing stocks the 0.25g, 0.75g, 1.0g, 1.25g and 1.5g sizes on a #10 hook, plus the 0.25g, 1.0g, 1.25g and 1.5g sizes on a #14 hook, 4 per pack.

FAQ
How does PE rating convert to pounds?
Only approximately. A common rule of thumb is PE size × 10 ≈ breaking strain in pounds, but it varies by brand and braid construction — check the maker's own lb or kg rating on the listing.
Are hook and jig head sizes the same across brands?
No — sizes aren't standardised between Japanese makers. Size to the lure you're rigging and check the brand's own size chart; the measurements on the listing are the honest reference.
The colour looks slightly different from my last spool — is that normal?
Yes. Dye batches on braid and finishes on painted heads vary between production runs. It's cosmetic and doesn't change the spec.
How does small tackle ship?
Packed in Japan and sent with tracked international shipping, same as everything else. Small items still get a tracking number; delivery time varies by destination.
Why buy JDM line specifically?
Japanese line makers in the JAFTMA industry group publish tight diameter and strength tolerances, and member brands are measured against them. Check each listing's spec — that's a per-brand claim, not a blanket promise.
