The Daiwa HMKL Minnow Steez Custom 137SP first design was based on the universal profile of minnows but Daiwa tackle designer Kazuma Izumi has taken it much further choosing just the right material, coating, lip design, figure, and size.

Its design is simple and that’s to appeal to universal forage bases of various different types of minnows and juvenile fish. In terms of body design, the shape of the HMKL’s body is incredibly lean because designer Izumi believes that “leaner lures are more effective in tough fishing situations.” “The ultimate goal,” says Izumi, “was to create a jerkbait that blows the competition away with its lean profile, action, and form, and simply catches more fish.”To that end, Izumi crafted a bait with a unique weight transfer system, with SaqSas swivels on the front and back to reduce fish coming off, and a circuit board carbon fiber bill—the first ever on a jerkbait—that’s very durable and won’t chip. Like the rudder of a boat, the circuit board bill keeps the bait’s action accurate and very precise every time you use it. It’s also extremely sharp and cuts the water very accurately, getting the bait where it needs to be. 

The HMKL also casts like a bullet thanks to its SaqSas weight transfer system that utilize small tungsten weights. The smaller tungsten weights also allow the bait a much more balance under the water and the internal counter buoyance weight stabilizes the bait without any unnecessary noise.

SaqSas swivels that hold the split ring on the front and rear hook allows the hooks to spin freely avoiding the rudder-like action and unnatural balance of the hooks normally and keeps fish hooked no matter the condition. Wherever the treble hooks stick in the fish’s mouth, this SaqSas swivels rotate to prevent tearing and losing the fish.

The Avet MXJ G2 Lever Drag Fishing Reels are a powerhouse of reels, especially for their size.  It boasts 20lbs of drag at full which is enough for at least a 50lb tuna with micro braided line.  For a fishing reel this small, that is very impressive.  With 400 yards of 50 pound regular 4 carrier braid, you have the capacity and torque of a much larger reel.  

The solid aluminum frame won't flex under a load and the superior carbon fiber drag washers will stand up to a long fight.  We like this reel for the light weight, extreme durability, nice line capacity, and nice free-spool.  As with any of the Avet reels, you get bang for your buck and a reel that will last you for many years to come.

Left hand Avet Reels only come in silver.

The Owner STX-71 Stinger Treble Hooks are ultra-strong, premium treble hooks designed for heavy-duty saltwater and big game fishing. Crafted with Owner’s proprietary Zo-Wire, these 5X+ strong hooks offer exceptional strength in a thinner wire diameter, ensuring superior hook penetration, sharper points, and reduced weight for enhanced lure action. The STX-71 features forged shanks and Super Needle Points for maximum durability and reliable hooksets, even under extreme pressure from large predatory fish.

What makes this hook different is the bend on the point of the hook.  Some hooks are bent too much making it difficult to hook the fish.  This hook has the right amount of bend to keep the fish on, but not too much so that it's difficult to set the hook.

Finished with a corrosion-resistant vacuum-tinned coating, these hooks are ideal for targeting species like tuna, amberjack, and giant trevally when used with large plugs, poppers, or jigs. The STX-71’s design emphasizes balance, with a wide gape and short shank to optimize hook-up rates while minimizing leverage for fish to throw the hook. Pre-rigged with heavy-duty split rings, the STX-71 is ready for immediate use in demanding offshore environments, making it a top choice for anglers seeking uncompromised strength and performance.

For Fishing in California:

• Surf Fishing:
  • Why It Works: The rods’ lengths (8'6" to 14'0") and medium-heavy to heavy power ratings (e.g., 8-20 lb line for 10'7"–13'0" models, 30-65 lb line for 8'3"–9'6" popping models) are ideal for long-distance casting from California’s beaches, piers, or rocky shores. The split butt design and zirconium guide inserts ensure smooth line flow for braided or monofilament lines, critical for casting heavy lures or baits into the surf.
  • Target Species: California surf species like surfperch, corbina, barred perch, halibut, and striped bass.
  • Technique Details: Use models like the HWM-S-1072MHb (10'7", 8-20 lb line, 1/2-2 oz lures) or HWM-S-1302MHb (13'0", 8-20 lb line, 1/2-2 oz lures) for casting soft plastics, swimbaits, or metal spoons into the surf zone. The longer 12'0"–14'0" models (e.g., HWM-S-1402MHb) excel for reaching deeper troughs or beyond breaking waves.
  • California Locations: Ideal for beaches like Santa Monica, Huntington Beach, or San Diego’s Mission Bay, where long casts are needed to reach feeding fish.
• Popping and Surface Lure Fishing:
  • Why It Works: The shorter, heavier models (e.g., HWP-S-832MHb, 8'3", 30-65 lb line, 30-160 g lures; HWP-S-832Hb, 8'3", 50-100 lb line, 90-200 g lures) are specifically designed for popping, with the backbone to throw large surface lures and handle explosive strikes. The rods’ fast to moderate-fast tapers provide the responsiveness needed for working poppers or stickbaits.
  • Target Species: Yellowtail, bonito, and occasionally tuna or dorado (mahi-mahi) when they move closer to California’s coastal waters.
  • Technique Details: Use large poppers or stickbaits (30-200 g) with the 8'3" popping models for aggressive surface presentations. The rods’ ALPS-316 stainless steel guides and TPE foam grips ensure durability and comfort during high-energy retrieves.
  • California Locations: Effective around Southern California’s Channel Islands or coastal kelp beds (e.g., La Jolla, Point Loma) where pelagics like yellowtail feed near the surface.

All models are 2 piece rods.
