The body is a Crystal Minnow: a slim, holographic baitfish profile that flashes like a fleeing fish, which is what makes a squid commit from a distance in clear water. The tail carries twin stainless steel crown hooks instead of trebles — the ring of upturned barbs used on squid jigs, designed to hold soft tentacles without tearing them. It sinks, so you fish it by count-down like an egi. F1025 at 90mm and 10g suits light shore work; F1027 at 130mm and 29g handles deeper water, current and boat drifts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMinnow-bodied squid lure — a baitfish profile on an egi-style hook system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwin ultra-sharp stainless steel crown hooks that hold squid without cutting tentacles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHolographic finish and three-dimensional eyes for clear and lit water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo sizes: 90mm \/ 10g (F1025) and 130mm \/ 29g (F1027)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow To Fish It (Eging, Not Minnow Fishing)\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCast and count the fall\u003c\/strong\u003e — Squid take on the sink, not the retrieve. Let the lure fall on a semi-slack line while you count; start at ten and add five counts each cast until you find the layer.

The jerk gets attention; the fall is what catches.
