Bottomup’s M.P.S is a soft bait designed to entice bites with subtle shaking, pursuing ultra-high-pitch micro vibrations and a natural horizontal posture. Its small body features appendages of different shapes, including thin legs, vertically flattened claws, and horizontally flattened pin tails. Each vibrates at a different rhythm, creating complex visual effects. The two constrictions gently regulate its movement during shaking, making it easier to produce a natural action even for anglers who are less confident with fine rod manipulation. A small amount of salt is added to the low-density soft material to achieve both a horizontal posture and soft movement. Powdered shrimp, squid, and baitfish are also blended into the material.
The head can be cut at the constricted sections, allowing its length to be adjusted to match the finesse jig or hook being used. The protrusions make it easy to bury the point when nose-hooked on a trout hook, helping prevent the worm from turning sideways. When rigged on a jig with a 90-degree line tie, it readily maintains a horizontal posture in the mid-water column, while bottom shaking creates a posture with the tail slightly raised. During the fall, the reverse-facing appendages vibrate and transmit movement all the way to the pin tails. The M.P.S 2.4-inch is recommended for use with a #6 trout hook or #5 offset hook. The M.P.S BIG increases both size and weight to 3.0 inches and approximately 2.9 g. Its ringed body has deeper grooves, and its lengthened thin legs enhance its action as a standalone bait, making it easy to use with lightweight jigs and bait finesse tackle.
