APIA PUNCH LINE CURVY 70SS

It would not be an exaggeration to say that "the history of APIA's lures is with the punch line". When I became an ambassador, it was already in the lineup, and since then, size, weight, shape and derivative models have been developed one after another. The role of the flat head, which can be said to be the identity of the punch line, is to "grab the flow", and it must have solved the problem of "difficulty to approach" for many anglers' sinking pencils.

The punch line series is easy to use as a "lure that can be searched widely by winding a large area" with a relatively heavy weight setting and a state detection sensor called a flat head. However, in urban fields like my hometown, there are situations where it is necessary to operate "quickly" overall with the current lineup, such as small places and shallow areas with a depth of 1 m or less, and it is not possible to match the field. Ta. I want something that moves less, can attack slowly even in shallow water, and responds to changes in the flow with high sensitivity. Development of the “PUNCHLINE CURVY 70SS” began in order to solve the issues that arise from this site.

A sinking pencil that is honestly tailored to the scene

Based on a compact body of 70mm that can be eaten in one bite, we have realized an "ultra-sensitive body" that responds to slight changes in tidal currents by securing plenty of buoyancy in the rear part.
Due to its shape, it is susceptible to lateral flow, so once it passes through the twist, it will be affected by the flow, and it will behave like a small fish that loses to the flow.
The flat head of PUNCHLINE70SS is set small so as not to bite water too much. In upcross and horizontal retrieve, the line becomes slack because it does not bite water. The slow S-shape makes it look glossy, while the figure drifting naturally is a masterpiece. It is difficult for artificial actions to be transmitted to the lure, eliminating the discomfort of the lure.

The weight distribution was adjusted until the final stage of development, realizing the "slowest sinking speed" and "horizontal posture fall" in the series.
This makes it possible to use the "show" fall even in shallow areas and areas where the flow is weak, and it is possible to quietly pour it into the back of the light and dark shade while maintaining a beautiful horizontal posture.
A minute upward flat surface is placed on the top of the flat head. This flat surface receives water pressure from above and the balance of backward buoyancy has succeeded in maintaining a beautiful horizontal swim posture even during retrieve. Also, in high-speed retrieve, it is minnow-like, but sometimes irregular actions can be activated.
Despite its fat body, the body is designed to eliminate air resistance as much as possible, and the flight attitude is stable, so it has more than enough flight distance.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that the standard of modern lures that combine "lightness and flight distance" has been raised by one rank.

Ability to feed "outside consciousness"

This model is also the lure that became the "most hits" among the three models that were being developed at the same time. Especially impressive was the light and dark part of autumn. I cast it with an upcross and poured it into the light and dark part, and tried to see the reaction of the sea bass after entering the dark side, but I got 3 bites in a row before I approached the light and dark part.
It was clearly all "unexpected part-time job". This lure is highly sensitive, so the power of nature leads to a bite, and the power to bite is working in a part other than the human consciousness.
Unexpected part-time job occurs frequently after that. The "ability to feed outside of consciousness" is so high that the experience value of advanced players does not become an advantage.

PINCHLINE "CURVY" 70SS is exactly "curvy". Form follows function.
Although it is positioned as a derivative model of Punchline, it is a complete zero start. It's not strange to say that I no longer have anything but a crown. I have absolutely no desire to create a new model of punch line, but my intention is to challenge myself to develop a new sinking pencil that fits the site.
So why punchline? As I said at the beginning, for APIA, the punch line is "history", that is, it is the "trajectory of challenge".
