(1) VIPER 110 (Brazil lure)
Might be a copy product of LC Sammy, but a giant version which is popular in Brazil. The body structure and accessories are built for handling huge peacock bass, so it’s no doubt a very strong one. So as the calling power of this pencil bait, the big body can produce big movement and metal bearings creating loud and noisy calling sound. Different from LC Sammy, this big doggie don’t dive easily while being retrieved. Good for peacock bass and toman back in
Malaysia, especially in windy and muddy ndition.
(2) Type1 RPP-60F, Type2 RPP-60F (AnglersRepublic)
Either you prefer long slide skating action (Type1) or short step dog walking action (Type2), RPP has them both, so the angler can adapt to more situations, cover more fields and catch more fish. These 6cm smaller size pencil are effective for clear water and high pressure fishing ground, such as the very popular Subang Lake. Smaller size, lively colour and appealing action will trigger the fish to bite reflectively. While doing fast and short twitch, these pencils can produces high speed dog walking and quick sliding action. Advisable to use spinning tackle on these small pencils.
(3) RPP-60S Submarine (AnglersRepublic)
Another member in the RPP family, and this is a rarely found 6cm sinking type. In a windy day where the surface is wavy, underwater action will be a better choice compare to the top water. Fish also will be less active to reach the upper layer when the air pressure is high; these are the time to reach for the Submarine. Effective not only for freshwater species like peacock bass and sebarau, even successful for saltwater field when targeting tarpon or small trevally.(
4)TTPE 80 & 100 (AnglersRepublic)
Available in two sizes, 8 cm and 10cm. The designer had a very clear and simple concept in mind while creating these lures, which is ?simple control, easy catch?. Closely observe, you will find that the eyes that connecting split rings to hooks are set facing front, which have the effect of improving hook up rate. The lager volume of these pencils provides higher floating power which allows anglers to use thicker line without effecting the lure action. With a quick stepping action, the 80mm TTPE is very good for peacock bass and sebarau, switch to the bigger TTPE 100 while grandpa grade Peacock bass and toman are around.
(5) DOG-X COAYU (Megabass)
coayuss.jpg No. 1 popular small pencil bait in Japan. Specially design to create bait fish escaping action, body will roll side to side while sliding, even some soft splashing when jerk harder. Different from the original Dog-X, this smaller version has a round body with flat surface at both sides. The purpose of this unique design is to create flashing and indurations which are as strong as a bigger size pencilbait. Small body but with big appeal is an effective solution to attract spooky fish under tough condition. Flat side bodies also provide a higher gripping strength in the water so that the lure won?t jump out even when retrieve fast. Logical concept and perfect craftsmanship are the two rules that you can always found in every Megabass lures.
