Imakatsu MJ Prop

The Imakatsu MJ Prop is a 105 mm, 23 g floating noisy-style topwater plug designed to be retrieved across the surface. Its single-wing prop creates fore-and-aft and vertical oscillation, while the flat, “manju-shaped” body catches this movement and slaps the water for a full-body driving action. Rather than relying solely on prop splash and sound, it creates a strong presence through the body’s own up-and-down movement and water displacement.

A removable blade is fitted to the belly. It can be used with the blade attached to add knocking sound from contact between the prop and blade, along with blade flash, or with the blade removed for a more subtle presentation. The line tie features a swivel to reduce line twist. For stable action, retrieve at a speed that prevents the body from rotating. This model is designed for bass feeding on large baitfish and situations where a clear surface-level appeal is needed, such as high-water-temperature periods, turnover, or deteriorating water conditions.
