Daiwa Yamamoto Neko Fat 4 Watermelon Copper – Soft Plastic Bait

Elevate Your Neko Rig with Daiwa Yamamoto Neko Fat 4

The Daiwa Yamamoto Neko Fat 4 blends Daiwa’s precise detailing with Yamamoto’s legendary soft plastic. The thick body mirrors a Senko-like silhouette, while a bulbous tail adds a subtle, quivering action that can tempt bites in a variety of conditions.

The 4-inch profile is versatile for weightless presentations and shines on a Neko Rig when paired with a nail weight at the head. This combination creates a compact profile that stays true as you work it along structure.

Key features

• Neko Fat Worm: thick, forgiving body for a distinctive profile
• Color Watermelon w/ Copper: bold, natural contrast in diverse water tones
• Length 4in: a balanced, versatile size for multiple rigs

In the water, the tail’s gentle quiver is noticeable during pauses or slow retrieves, adding life to the presentation without overwhelming motion. The soft plastic withstands repeated casts and light contact with cover, making it a practical option for all-day sessions.
