Through the 5m Wall, Consistently

IK-500R2 keeps the castability the series is known for while breaking the 5m barrier on a standard cast — a 10lb line and a 30m cast put it there measurably, and dragging takes it past 8m. The action is a wobble-roll that is deliberately not loud, and it keeps gripping water even when crawled, so you can slip into a spot holding deep schooling fish without spooking them and still draw a strike from inactive bass. It is designed for riser cranking through snaggy water, and the tail carries a special-order quattro-point (four-hook) treble: even when only one point is buried, the hook shank pins the bait against side-to-side movement and cuts head-shake losses dramatically.

The Imakatsu Crank Project

The brief for the whole IK Crank line was not a bait for one narrow situation. It was a baseline crank anyone can trust through all four seasons — one that casts well for any angler and, on a plain steady retrieve, automatically holds a set depth across a lot of water. The series does not pick its user.
