Issei Spatera 2.5in

The issei Umitaro Spatera 2.5in is the mid-length straight soft plastic worm in issei's Umitaro saltwater range, built around a slim ribbed body and a compact paddle tail. Ribbing running the length of the body creates a lifelike kick as it's worked through the water, and the soft, flexible material takes well to delicate rod work. Packs hold 14 pieces.

The undersized paddle tail drives a prop action that disturbs the surrounding water, and the body's left-right asymmetry adds an erratic, irregular movement that draws attention from a variety of light saltwater targets. Best rigged on a jighead or levelling head, running anywhere from sharp, twitchy strokes through to a smooth natural swim.
