WHAT IS IT?
OSP Saikoro ‘Dice’ Rubber Max Salt Soft Bait
WHAT SETS IT APART?
What sets it apart? The looks alone. What else is an impregnated high density of salt that creates a faster rate of fall into the strike zone. Plus, a specific gravity design gets the bait into deeper depths without it drifting off target — think a bass on bed.
HOW DO I USE IT?
Don’t let the 1/2-inch squared size and tentacles fool you into thinking this is just a gimmick. For best results, rig it on a small drop shot or wacky hook without a sinker. Make a sight cast to a bedding bass, let it fall into the strike zone and give it a twitch. Above all else, highly pressured bedding largemouth (think beds marked on GPS), see every conceivable size and shape of soft plastic bait danced before their noses. This bait stands out and is specifically designed for sight fishing. Available in eight colors.

ANGLER’S INSIGHT:
Sight fishing is now a specialized technique with continued refinements made with tackle and even electronics (think forward-facing sonar) that add even more pressure to already wary bedding largemouth. This makes them even more reluctant to leave the bed for a fake offering. The similarities in design and shape of soft plastics add to the reluctance factor. This bait stands out, and it is specifically designed for bedding bass.
Why would you not want to throw it, given all the above facts? It’s different in action and appearance and could be just what it takes to get that reluctant largemouth to bite.
Just ask Bassmaster Elite Series pro Kyoya Fujita, who used this bait to place second and third, respectively, at Lake Seminole and Lake Murray.
