Hayabusa builds them for \u003cem\u003eika-metal\u003c\/em\u003e — the Japanese boat method where a weighted metal sutte or egi hangs at the bottom of the leader and a lighter dropper sutte rides on a short branch above it, so two different presentations fish the same drop. The leader comes pre-tied with the branch and loops formed, which is the part most anglers get wrong: a dropper arm that is too long or too soft wraps the main line on every fall. The SR422 is the 1-way, a 90 cm ultra-short spec with a single dropper branch. The SR423 is the 2-way double spec, 1.2 m long with two branches. Both come two complete sets to a pack. In Malaysian waters this is the same job as a \u003cem\u003ecandat sotong\u003c\/em\u003e rig, run off a lighter rod with more finesse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePre-tied ika-metal leader with the dropper branch and connection loops already formed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSR422 — 1-way, single dropper, 90 cm ultra-short spec, harisu #5 with #5 main line\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSR423 — 2-way, double dropper, 1.2 m, harisu #4 with #4 main line\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo complete sets per pack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShort, stiff branch arms so the dropper stands away from the main line instead of tangling on the drop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUltra-short branch transmits rod movement directly to the dropper for a sharp, controlled lure action\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRuns a weighted metal sutte or egi at the bottom and a lighter sutte on the branch\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\u003eRigging the set\u003c\/strong\u003e — Tie the main line to the top loop, hang the weighted metal sutte or egi at the bottom, and clip a lighter sutte to the branch.

There is no thump. You feel weight arriving, weight disappearing, or the line going slack — all three are takes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNever strike\u003c\/strong\u003e — Do not swing the rod. Lift smoothly and keep winding. The barbless sutte crowns hold only while the line stays loaded, and a hard hookset or a moment of slack drops the squid every time.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWorking the drop\u003c\/strong\u003e — Lift the rod steadily, pause, and let the rig settle. Most takes happen in that pause. Count the rig down and stop at different depths until you find the holding layer, then stay there.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNight under lights\u003c\/strong\u003e — Squid stack at the edge of a boat light or a jetty lamp where the beam meets the dark. Fish the shadow line, not the middle of the glare, and let the dropper sutte hang above the metal in the lit zone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChoosing 1-way or 2-way\u003c\/strong\u003e — Take the SR422 when squid are close to the metal, when current is strong, or when you want the cleanest rig on the drop.
