The ez-BAIT does not — Duel builds it on a baitfish-like body with real volume, so it reads to a squid as a small fish rather than a prawn. That matters on boats where every other jig in the water is a slim shrimp profile: a different silhouette often gets a response when squid have stopped reacting. The rounded body cuts water cleanly, which keeps it stable through the three things a squid dropper has to do — fall, tease, pause. Duel calls it the all-rounder of the range, and that is a fair description: 80mm and 5g is the middle of the sutte size band, and it works as either the upper or lower dropper on a standard ika-metal leader. It carries an anti-twist swivel, a reflective Flash Eye, and Duel's Trick Hook, a crown designed to bend out of a snag and then be reset with the fingers instead of breaking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBaitfish-shaped cloth body with volume — a different silhouette from shrimp-profile sutte\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRounded body cuts water cleanly for a stable fall and controlled action\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnti-twist swivel built into the head to stop line twist on long drops\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrick Hook crown — bends under load on a snag and can be reset by hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e80mm \/ 5g, hook type Y2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWide colour range covering glow, blue glow, UV-reactive and System Colour finishes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow To Fish It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRig as a dropper\u003c\/strong\u003e — Tie it on a 30–50cm branch line above a metal lead jig.
