Information

The swimming action

The Back & Forth is built around drift and reverse-retrieve presentations rather than a simple straight wobble, responding to irregular rod work with an erratic flutter; the Dia finish adds a faceted surface for extra random flash.

When to throw it

Suited to stream and area trout fishing where a lure needs to work naturally in current, including dead-drifting through pools and runs where trout expect food to move with the flow rather than across it.

How to work it

Let it drift and swing naturally in the current, or work it with a reverse retrieve and irregular twitches of the rod tip rather than a constant straight wind; small pauses let it flutter and catch the light.

The setup it likes

Suits a light trout rod around 5-6ft rated to 1-5g, paired with a small 1000-2000 size reel, 2-4lb monofilament or fluorocarbon line and no separate leader needed at this weight.

Straight answers

How is it priced?

We aim to beat your local price. We ship direct from Japan, cutting out the overseas middleman, and shipping is shown at checkout before you pay.

When does my order leave Japan?

Orders are packed in Japan and leave within 3–8 business days, tracked. You get a tracking number by email the moment it ships.

How long does delivery take?

Your order leaves Japan in 3–8 business days, tracked. Checkout shows the delivery options for your country, with their price and delivery estimate, before you pay.

Will I be charged import duty or tax?

US import duty is shown as its own line at checkout, before you pay. Your parcel then travels duty-paid, so there is nothing to pay on delivery.

Is it genuine stock?

Yes. Every item is genuine Japanese-market stock, sourced in Japan from an established Japanese wholesaler and shipped straight to you. Never marketplace resellers.
