How to Use the Gachipen 160:
Surprise: It’s incredibly effective in autumn’s Konoshiro-pattern seabass fishing too!
Though the Gachipen 160 was developed for offshore big game, it’s insanely effective for seabass as well.
▪ Why it catches fish ▪
① Exceptional casting distance
② Strong visual appeal
These two features are key.
In offshore fishing, even your buddy fishing beside you becomes a rival once the fish are in.
The lure must get noticed first—and Gachipen 160 was designed to out-cast everyone and grab attention fast, making it deadly for seabass.
Super Simple Operation:
Best suited for daytime fishing. Use a visual “pop-pop-pop-pop” rhythm to make the lure’s head zigzag left and right—a classic dog-walking motion. That’s it!
Recommended Setup for Seabass
Hook: Treble #2/0
Ring: #5
If you’re fishing from a high platform, in highly saline areas, or using down-cross currents, Gachipen’s head might ride too high and skim across the surface. In that case, add 2–3g of lead tape under the lure’s head to correct the balance.
Give it a try—you won't be disappointed!
