A Lifelike Prey Brought to Life

A super-realistic secret bait that Ken Fukushima kept hidden for years.

Not only does it look so lifelike that it can fool bass without even moving, but when it does move—desperately darting about as if fleeing from a predator—it mimics real baitfish perfectly.

This is a lure that catches fish on its own power… and triggers strikes through the angler’s presentation.
Its devastating effectiveness shines in high-level situations like clear water, sight fishing, and forward-facing sonar (Live Scope), where subtlety and realism are essential.

Ken Fukushima confidently claims:

“I don't use it in normal conditions—because it catches too many, big or small.
This is my last-resort trump card for when nothing else works.”

Visuals – Realistic Silhouette

[ Original Color ]

• Silver powder (silver-colored powder) is sprayed onto the body surface, giving the lure a sparkling effect that mimics the scales of small fish.

• A unique manufacturing method is used where only necessary parts of the body are painted. By applying dark colors to a narrow section of the back, the shimmering effect on the sides is enhanced.

• Finally, a clear coating is applied over the paint and silver powder, simulating the slimy texture of small fish.

[ Laminated Color ]

• Different colored materials are laminated top and bottom. With dark colors covering almost half of the body, this design emphasizes the change in color perception when the lure rolls.

• Silver powder (silver-colored powder) is mixed into the material and scattered within the body, giving the surface a slightly subdued tone.
  Note: Some laminated colors do not use silver powder, resulting in an even more muted color tone.

• A clear coating is applied to the exterior, simulating the slimy feel of small fish.

Last Ace 75

[ Fukushima-style No-Sinker Rigging ]

Recommended Tackle

• Rod: Spinning rod, 6–7 ft, Ultra Light (UL)

• Line: Fluorocarbon, 3–5 lb

• Hook: Mosquito hook (offset or drop shot style), size #2

Rigging Method

1. Prepare a size #2 mosquito hook and a single brush guard from a rubber jig.

2. Thread the hook into the head of the worm and exit through the belly side. Be sure that the hook eye is embedded and hidden inside the worm body.

3. Insert the brush guard into the worm in a way that it passes through the hook eye. Trim any excess of the brush guard — and you're done.
