YAMARIA’s Ma2worm Soft is a straight worm developed with a focus on the inhalation-style bites of horse mackerel. It uses the highly flexible SS-X super-soft material. Its slim body is paired with a straight, extended tail, while fine ribs on the tail create subtle vibrations during the retrieve. Despite its soft, easily inhaled material, it also offers the durability needed for repeated use in light-game fishing.
Basic techniques include a slow retrieve through a consistent depth, as well as lift-and-fall and twitch-and-fall presentations when rigged on a jig head. During the fall after the lift, the tail catches water and draws fish in without excessive movement from its slim profile. Official information introduces targeting the mid-water range to areas near the bottom with a jig-head rig. By adjusting the target depth with a countdown, it can be used with a combination of subtle actions and falls. Different sizes, including 1.8-inch and 2.3-inch models, are also selected according to fish activity and bait size.
