With no lip to catch air, and a magnetic weight transfer system that shifts the internal ball rearward in flight, it holds a stable nose-first trajectory into a headwind. On the retrieve the weight returns forward and the lure rolls in a loose sliding S-track; on jerks it darts hard to the side, then keeps gliding through the pause the way a fleeing baitfish does. The 80mm F944 at 9g suits shallow flats and river mouths on light tackle; the 100mm F945 at 14g suits open beaches and breakwaters. This is a discontinued Duel model number, so the colours here are what remain available.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLipless sinking pencil in two sizes: 80mm \/ 9g (F944) and 100mm \/ 14g (F945)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMagnetic weight transfer system for long, stable casts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSinking body — retrieve depth set by countdown\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSharp darting on jerks, and a long glide through the pause\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF944: #10 treble hooks with flat #2 split rings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF945: #8 treble hooks with flat #3 split rings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNatural, luminous and high-contrast colour finishes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow To Fish It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountdown and steady wind\u003c\/strong\u003e — Count the lure down one second at a time until you find fish, then wind at a medium pace so the body keeps its slow rolling track.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwitch and glide\u003c\/strong\u003e — Two short twitches on slack line, then a one-second pause.
