Sea Urchin (Koike) Bass Lure 10cm - Watermelon and Pumpkin (1s)

Sea urchin bass lures (often called urchin baits, fuzzy dice, or "Koike" style baits) have exploded in popularity as a dominant finesse tactic for largemouth and smallmouth bass.

• The Technique: Cast the bait toward cover and let it fall on completely slack line. Once deep, retrieve it using sharp pop-pop-pause sequences—similar to working a hard jerkbait. The tentacles flare wildly when twitched and collapse on the pause.
