An egi is cast and jerked back; a sutte is a cloth bait fished vertically under a boat, hung off a dropper branch above an ika-metal jig or lead sutte. DUEL builds this one around a fish-shaped body and a tinsel wrap, and describes the effect as the illusion of a schooling baitfish — flash rather than bulk. At 80 mm and 5 g it is the slim, light option in DUEL's cloth sutte range: the one for clear water, bright deck lights and squid that have seen a lot of tackle. A flash eye, an anti-twist swivel and DUEL's Y2 Trick Hook crown complete it, across sixteen colours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePicca or Pucca?\u003c\/strong\u003e The names are one letter apart and the two baits do opposite jobs. Picca (A1862) is 80 mm and 5 g: slim, fish-shaped, tinselled — flash and a small silhouette. Pucca (A1860 \/ A1861) is 75 mm at 5.5 g or 90 mm at 8 g, plump and high-buoyancy, pushing water and holding posture in current — volume and vibration. Clear water, slack tide and cautious squid favour Picca; stained water, running tide and squid wanting a bigger target favour Pucca. Squid boats carry both and swap them on the same rig until one gets bitten.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCloth sutte in one size: 80 mm, 5 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFish-shaped body with a tinsel wrap for schooling-baitfish flash\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlash eye and an anti-twist swivel built into the head\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eY2 Trick Hook stainless crown — opens under load to release a snag, then returns to shape\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSixteen colours in four families: luminous, UV keimura, blue luminous and non-glow silhouette\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow To Fish It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRig it as a dropper\u003c\/strong\u003e — Tie Picca to a 30–50 cm branch off the main leader, with an ika-metal jig or lead sutte at the bottom.
