Yamashita Egi King Search 076 Wild Howl No. 2.5 – Light & Sound Squid Lure

Overview

Meet the Yamashita Egi King Search No. 2.5 in the 076 Wild Howl color. Crafted for squid anglers, this lure blends bold visual appeal with audible cues to widen your search area and boost in-water presence without guaranteeing any outcome.

The lure’s core is a cooperative light-and-sound system. A strobofin-driven action creates a subtle rattle as it flickers through the water, helping the target site detect movement and vibration. The wide sides reflect ambient light from multiple angles, increasing visibility as you work the lure along your chosen drift or retrieve path.

Key benefits at a glance

• Light and sound: A high-appeal setup designed to invite attention from active squid.
• Reflective body: Broad panels catch and bounce light, aiding visibility in varied water conditions.
• Rattle mechanics: The flattening action generates a distinct, detectable sound signature underwater.
• Wide-area search: The combination of light, sound, and form helps you cover a broader zone with a measured cadence.

how to use

Ideal for drifting, slow-to-moderate retrieves, or casting along reefs and structures where squid commonly school. Adjust your pace according to water clarity: in clear water, a gentle motion may suffice; in murky water, a slightly quicker cadence can emphasize visibility and vibration.

• Size & weight: No. 2.5 and 0.4 oz provide a compact, responsive feel for precise control.
• Length: 3.1 inches (79 mm) ensures a balanced profile that tracks with a steady technique.
• Sinking speed: Approximately 3.6 seconds per meter offers a controlled descent to mid-water or near structures.
