Description

The Umahata Grub 3.8in is a saltwater soft plastic grub from issei's Umitaro range with a thin-profile tail designed to keep kicking on a slow retrieve or on the fall. That steady tail action, combined with a bait that is easy for fish to take in fully, makes it a good choice for the first cast when searching out how a rockfish mark is feeding on the day.

Rig it on a jighead sized for casting and swimming work, or on a swimming or spin-style jighead. Available in official colourways including #018 (Rockfish SP), #024 (Murakami Secret), #035 (Keimura Rainbow) and #064 UV Clear Rainbow RDF.

Information

The swimming action

The thin-profile tail keeps kicking on a slow, steady retrieve or on the drop, giving a subtle vibration rather than a hard thump. Fish take the soft body in fully, which helps hook-up rates on the take.

When to throw it

A first-cast searching bait for rockfish marks: reef edges, boulder fields and structure where fish sit tight to the bottom. Works year-round but earns its keep when reading how a mark is feeding before committing to a slower, more specific bait.

How to work it

Rig on a jighead sized for casting and swimming, or a dedicated swimming/spin-style head. Work it with a slow, steady retrieve along the bottom or a controlled fall on slack line, pausing over likely holding spots.

The setup it likes

Suits a light rockfish spinning rod around L power, a 2000-2500 reel, PE0.4-0.6 or 4-6 lb fluorocarbon main line, and a 1-1.5 lb fluorocarbon leader with a jighead matched to depth and current.
