Shimano SP Orca Baby – Blue Pink

The Shimano SP Orca Baby is a new addition to the Orca lure family. These lures are well-known for their ability to catch large pelagic species consistently. While most of the Orca lures are designed to be used on the water's surface, the SP Orca Baby is a casting jig that is meant to be used just below the surface. It imitates small baitfish like slim anchovies that are preferred by large tuna.

This lure not only has an enticing swimming action, but it also wobbles as it falls, increasing the chances of a hookup during the retrieve when the fish are not as active. Although it doesn't have a through-wire construction, the lure is still durable. It features a stainless steel plate in the head that can handle up to 200lbs of pressure.

Weighing 1.5oz and measuring 3.5″ in length, this lure is ready to use straight out of the box. It comes with a single rigged assist hook that is ideal for catching large tuna and other pelagic species. The SP Orca Baby is a crucial addition to your tackle collection, especially when targeting tunas that are focused on small prey. It is particularly effective during the fall run of bluefin tuna off the northeast coast.
