Product Description

Shallow Beater that can be reeled in

The Blitz SSR is a super shallow crankbait that can induce bites with its high-pitch action without getting snagged at depths of around 1.0m. Its physical structure inherits the Blitz DNA, which enhances the basic performance required of a crankbait. The small lip typical of super shallow crankbaits offers benefits such as long-distance casting, stable flight posture, and light reeling resistance, but it also tends to expose the hook point, increasing the risk of snagging and disrupting the reeling rhythm. The Blitz SSR's distinctive wide square lip shape was the result of balancing all the performance required for cranking, placing emphasis on stress-free ease of use and obstacle avoidance capabilities. Despite its standard design, the Blitz SSR is packed with elements that make it ideal for fishing, setting a new standard for super shallow crankbaits.

[WHAT'S BLITZ DNA]

Blitz DNA is a design concept that redefines conventional hard plugs by revisiting their basic physical structure and reconstructing it to become the next-generation standard. The Honeycomb Super HP body, which has been made as thin and light as possible while maintaining body strength, reduces the moment of inertia and dramatically improves action response. The HP Slash Bill, which allows for an extremely thin lip while maintaining the strength of the lip, which bears the greatest load, also contributes to improved response. The One Weight Underbalance System consolidates the internal weight into one body, achieving an ultra-low center of gravity and contributing to improved movement efficiency. The Blitz SSR is a design backed by physical theory.

Maximum depth of 1.3m (using 12lb fluorocarbon line)

Comment from the editorial department

Basser Editor-in-Chief Sasaki:

I think it fills the gap between so-called super shallow crankbaits (such as Footloose and Baby One Minus) and regular shallow crankbaits. When the regular Blitz picks up fallen leaves or gets snagged on rocks, I always use the SSR . If you adjust the range with the tip while reeling, it's very effective!

 

Basser Editorial Department Tanigawa:

The waters around Lake Kasumigaura and the Tone River, from the edge of the cover to the break, are shallow enough that even a regular shallow crankbait can easily hit the bottom. And yet, I'd like it to be able to reach a little further than a subsurface crankbait... That's where this lure comes in. There aren't many options for compact crankbaits around 50 cm long, so I definitely want to have one in my box. If you're in a field with colored water, the Ghost Lime Chart and Black Gold colors are the ones to buy first!

 

Editorial Department Arai's comment:

As a local of Ushiku-numa, I think this lure is perfect for the time right after spawning. In the shallow stretch of the Higashi-Yata River downstream of the Fusunai Bridge, I feel it has potential when retrieved at high speed to get the floating females, who have finished spawning, to bite.
