Information

The swimming action

Mebapen Mebaru is a small floating pencil-minnow that sits with a slight nose-up posture and gives a subtle rolling wobble on a slow retrieve, staying easy for mebaru to track in low light.

When to throw it

Built for night sessions around harbour lights, breakwaters and structure where mebaru (rockfish) hold close to cover, especially in the cooler months when they sit higher in the water column.

How to work it

Fish it dead slow just under the surface, pausing often; short twitches followed by a stall usually draw more strikes than a continuous retrieve.

The setup it likes

Suits a light mebaru/aji rod (UL), a 1000–2000 spinning reel, 2–3 lb fluorocarbon or PE0.3–0.4 with a short fluorocarbon leader.

Before you buy

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.
