Introducing the Shimano Bantam Ligen 66F: The Ultimate Pencil Popper with Versatile Actions
Shimano Australia is thrilled to unveil the Bantam Ligen 66F, a game-changing pencil popper that is set to revolutionise the art of fishing. With its exceptional design and a wide range of actions, this lure is poised to become the angler's new best friend.
The Bantam Ligen 66F boasts three distinct actions that are sure to entice even the most elusive fish. Whether you prefer the classic walking-the-dog technique, the energetic popping action, or the captivating diving motion, this pencil popper has got you covered. While all actions deliver excellent results, it is the diving action that truly takes centre stage. By simply lowering the rod tip and giving it a few bounces, the popper effortlessly dives beneath the water's surface, moving tantalisingly from side to side. Anglers will be delighted to discover that many bites occur precisely as the lure resurfaces from this captivating dive.
To further enhance its effectiveness, the Bantam Ligen 66F features the innovative FLASH BOOST technology. Even during surface movements or pauses, the lure emits sparkling flashes, making it absolutely irresistible to fish. This mesmerising feature ensures that fish remain captivated and continuously drawn towards the popper, increasing the angler's chances of a successful catch.
But that's not all - the Bantam Ligen 66F also incorporates an exclusive SCALE BOOST capability. Leveraging cutting-edge hologram technology, this lure replicates the intricate patterns of real baitfish scales. The composite pitch holograms produce lifelike reflections in the water, effectively mimicking the scales of live baitfish. With a diverse lineup of holograms tailored to different fishing scenarios, anglers can select the most appropriate option for any given situation, enhancing their chances of a successful catch.
During extensive testing, renowned Australian fishing legend Steve Starling exclaimed, "They like that Ligen! I was fishing it super slow, just shaking it a lot of the time. There might be something in that Flashboost! Good lure!"
The Bantam Ligen 66F is set to be a hit with light tackle anglers, catering to some of the most popular angling species in Australia. From summer whiting in the shallows to crafty creek bass hiding in the snags, and from bream, flathead, and mangrove jack in saltwater to trout, sooty grunter, and jungle perch in freshwater, any fish chasing small baitfish or prawns near the surface will be enticed by this irresistible lure.
As a leading name in fishing tackle innovation, Shimano is committed to providing anglers with the highest-quality products. With a dedication to research and development, Shimano continues to push the boundaries of fishing technology, ensuring that anglers Australia-wide have the tools they need to achieve success.
