Description

CO-VIE CHOO is Smith's free rig-dedicated worm for chinning — targeting black seabream (chinu/kurodai) fished on a free rig with a pegged, semi-fixed sinker. Action-responsive arm parts are paired with a ring-textured body that starts grabbing water the instant it hits the surface and keeps moving continuously.

The hook-set area is slit for a secure fit, and the body material is kept deliberately firm so the hook stays put on short bites, continuing to draw the chinu in until the moment of a deep take.

Length: 2.8in. Pack: 6 per pack. Compatible hook size: offset hook #2–#1 (guide only, varies by hook shape); recommended hook: CO-VIE Hook #1. This listing carries colours 08 Jimi-Jimi, 09 Hade Pan Chart and 10 Camo Flash from Smith's 10-colour CO-VIE CHOO lineup.

Information

The swimming action

Action-responsive arm parts pair with a ring-textured body that starts grabbing water the instant it hits the surface and keeps moving continuously, giving the CO-VIE CHOO steady action on a free rig even at rest.

When to throw it

Built for chinning black seabream on a free rig with a pegged, semi-fixed sinker, the 2.8in size covers typical chinu ground where a slightly larger profile and more body movement is an advantage over the compact 2.4in.

How to work it

A slit hook-set area keeps the hook seated through short bites, and the firm body material holds it in place, so let the rig sit and work it with small lifts rather than a continuous retrieve.

The setup it likes

Suits a rock or boat chinu rod matched to a free rig, a 2500-3000 spinning reel, PE0.6-1 braid and a fluorocarbon leader a touch heavier than typical bottom rigs.
