1. Frame Selection

【Regular Frame】
The regular frame provides the most natural S-shaped movement.
We have increased the thickness of the front eye to minimize crushing.
Therefore, it may be slightly difficult to attach split rings, etc.

【Under-Chin Frame】
Since the first installation on the Spec of 456 in 2016, the under-chin frame has undergone continuous refinement.
From the 2020 Spec of 343 DENIIRO and Spec of 278 PATIINO, it features a mechanism with three line eyes spaced a few millimeters apart vertically,
allowing adjustment of the rolling degree.

2. Color Selection

【White Hologram】 (Image: front)
Cowhide Nume leather treated with white pigment, then mermaid embossed and holographic foil applied.
This color is even whiter than the horsehide Nume white rainbow released in 2020,
offering a beautiful and highly visible option.

【Raw Nume Hologram】 (Image: back)
As no pigment coating is applied, it absorbs water quickly and appropriately.Natural cowhide Nume leather, mermaid embossed, with holographic foil applied.
This specification allows the raw Nume cowhide leather to change to an amber color with use.
We propose this to fully enjoy the natural changes of Nume leather while using it.

2025 New color
【Silver Foil】
Cowhide Nume leather, mermaid embossed, with silver foil applied.
This specification allows it to change over time, reminiscent of the rust on fish that have survived harsh conditions.
We want you to fully enjoy the teeth marks on the silver foil as it gets used.

[Under-Chin Frame]

-Characteristics of Leather Lures-
The lure will not exhibit its inherent S-shaped movement when its water absorption is low.
Users are requested to adjust the weight themselves according to water temperature and water absorption.
If the water temperature is low, the leather's water absorption is likely low, so please add weight to adjust.
Adjusting the weight to match the retrieval speed of your reel will help prevent the lure's balance from collapsing.
As water temperature and quality change with the seasons, the lure may float or sink depending on its water absorption, allowing you to notice changes in the field's water.


-Storage and Maintenance of Leather Lures-
・Typically, store in a dry condition.
・After fishing, dry in a well-ventilated area.
・When drying the lure by placing it down, spread newspaper or similar underneath to remove moisture and dry both sides.
・Drying the lure while hanging it, so it doesn't touch anything, is recommended (prevents mold, etc.).
・For tackle cases, we recommend drilling ventilation holes (prevents mold, etc.).
