This OVERSIZED Jerkbait Has Won Pro's Thousands Of Dollars Yet Nobody Is Throwing It!?

[@russdavis_]

Caught my first 2 fish on a Kanata last week. Both fish UNDER 2.5 lbs. Which was actually a HUGE confidence booster. The size does not intimidate. I can attest that adding the 2 gram Zappu board weight suspends it perfectly in 85-90 degree water temp here in Texas. Thanks as always guys.

[@thehookuptackle_usa]

Awesome man! 👊🍻

[@vsonic86]

Does this modification also apply to kanata SW version as well? Can you also recommend hooks/split ring size for the upgraded as well?

[@Tbowie13]

Man I'm glad you mentioned the Tequila Baccarac for the Kanata. I have one, but it never occurred to me to try it. I bought the Spec R just for the Kanata. Now that you say that, I bet it could control it much more positively. Anyhow, good tip!

[@ahmadbadran982]

This is the most effective Lure especially in GCC countries,saltwater . This lure is mainly hooking big size clever king mackerel from shore and it is so successful

Ya he's a master...........doesn't mix words.

[@Smallmouthnation]

It’s a big bait but way thinner and easier to fish vs a Pointer 128. Love both

[@The_Bass_Stunters]

When will you guys get the Kanata +1??

[@thehookuptackle_usa]

Soon

[@barvdimon412]

Kanata is awesome jerkbait, we use it for pike fishing a lot. Nishine weight definitely worth of trying!! Thinking of upgrading my jerkbait rod and looking at carbon head f5-611 super cyclone. Is it a good deal for Kanata, rudra and 130 balisong type jerkbaits? Or not to bother and take diablo spec R?

[@otis295]

Gunna give it a try for Musky

[@greenpighunter6930]

Excellent

[@burs_bobby_iaga]

Nishine is the next best thing. Hiroshi has so much passion for what he does and I respect that a lot.

[@thehookuptackle_usa]

He certainly does!

[@franksancimino1297]

Talking to the 5 guys with livescope...lol. Viewers Ive had the Kanata for 3 yrs. I'm in Florida .It catches um 10inches 2 10lbs. Deadstick or rip.......great in shallow windy conditions sun or cloud.

[@Blenheim-king-li]

look's like p5 f5-68x blade is a perfect option for kanata🎉❤😮

[@Blenheim-king-li]

daemos could be another one😊

[@edwardwicht5271]

Do the 110s and other MB jerkbaits get reeled rather than jerked in Japan?

[@tationut]

it’s a question i was thinking about asking

[@thehookuptackle_usa]

Yes. It’s both

[@Tbowie13]

I just picked up a 1pile of Kanatas and an Orochi Spec R a couple of weeks ago and just came back to the Ozarks a week ago. Of course, I had to try it out and put on Perch as there are a ton of lake perch here. Well, what do ya know? It started cracking em. I tried quite a few different types of jerkbaits just to see, but the Kanata has been king. All winter here, I smacked bass, walleye, and crappie with the 110, but now they want that Kanata. Anyhow, it was kinda ironic seeing this video right after deciding to get a pile of Kanatas and a Spec R to throw em on. BTW, the Nishine weights are awesome. I bought a pile of em and tried on the Kanata, and I know bass are typically more aggressive in summer, but they have seemed to prefer it to sit still every 8-10 ft after more aggressive retrieve speed and they smash it after the pause.

[@thehookuptackle_usa]

Glad you’re jacking them man!!

[@SouthJerseyBaitReviews]

I never thought of putting the blade on the those Kanata's I usually take the front hook off and use a double point style treble and do sweeps with them near rocky areas and wood that double frog style hook on the front really helps that bait go right over wood and stays a lot more weedless u can also go all double prong /frog style hooks . An you'll get a super weedless bait some guys from Japan are doing this with the DRT baits and larger swimbaits for same purpose and getting pretty good hookups with even those bigger baits.

[@thehookuptackle_usa]

[@hector00000100]

I just put a bigger heavier hook on the front. Ichikawa 1/0

[@roryshannon746]

I’m going to use this to go musky fishing.

[@thehookuptackle_usa]

💯

[@joemurphy6736]

wonder if this works for musky 🤔

[@unfi6798]

Reeled & Jerked - Excellent name for a tackle shop.! Love the tuning weight & smaller hook idea. It's so simple and yet a functional mod. Hmm..maybe there's a market in modding bait, have to look into that..! Cheers mate from Australia.

[@PHATBASSASSASSIN]

BP wrecked them at wheeler on that

[@law1831]

A sleeper rod for this bait is the daiwa tatula 7'3 swimbait rod. That's a sleeper rod in general that's not crazy expensive. It does good with the kanata, megabass grenade, megadog x, vatalion, and the big m. The tranx 300 is a good reel for it

[@thehookuptackle_usa]

👍👍

[@toadslayer72]

May not be as applicable to this bait because of it’s size but tungsten putty around the hook shank(s) is my favorite way to dial in the perfect suspend with standard sized jerkbaits. It’s a pretty versatile way to go about it.

[@principleoutdoors8932]

When lazy, I cut the eye on the Nishine weight, twist it then attach...don't tell Hiroshi!

[@064pointbreak]

The reaon why Nobody Is Throwing this is that this bait is too big for a bass to inhale. So a musky pro would fish it and win $1000.

[@lightningmusky5286]

How was the visit to the Rapala booth or did you talk to the great bait designer Wheeler? Is there video?

[@burs_bobby_iaga]

He's a bait designer ?

Thanks for the video! What are larger jerkbaits I can use instead of the Kanata? OSP, Nishine, Raid?
