Daiwa STEEZ CHIQUITA FROG
Super compact "Chiquita Frog" with a total length of 38 mm, supervised by Yukiya Uchiyama. A frog is just a name, it is an ultra-small hollow frog that can even produce insects. It is no exaggeration to say that this extremely small body has opened a new door for hollow frogs, and with the advent of CT SV, it can now be handled with a bait reel without stress even when using thick PE line. You will also not feel stressed when using power spinning with a PE line set.

| Front cup + long skirt |

 At first glance, the skirt (70mm) seems a little long compared to the body size, and the cup on the front is designed to entice you to take a closer look. The front cup itself acts as a resistance, and by making the skirt longer, the force that pulls it backwards will be stronger. The synergistic effect of these makes it possible for anyone to perform a light swinging action with minimal travel distance.
deep draft A deep draft weight setting that reduces buoyancy and allows the body to sink deeply into the water. Compact frogs are susceptible to the effects of wind and waves, so setting a deep draft improves water bite and improves maneuverability. It also increases visibility from the bass, increasing your presence, and even short bites seen during the post-spawn period will be sucked into the bass's mouth, making it easier to hook.
Adopts silicone skirt  Instead of the rubber skirt that is usually used for frogs, we purposely use a silicone skirt. Silicone skirts have the advantage of being able to create transparent and vibrant colors. Also, since it has weaker buoyancy than a rubber skirt, it lowers the draft of the body itself and improves water absorption.

| Tinsel skirt specification model |

|
|
| Tinsel is a material with high transparency and flashing effect. |

This material, often used for fly fishing, is realistic and natural enough to fool trout, which are said to have very good eyesight. It also has a lighter specific gravity than rubber or silicone skirts (original model = 6.2g, tinsel model = 5.3g), which suppresses the sound of water landing and attracts bass with more delicate waves. It is also possible to imitate insect wings, so it is recommended to use it in situations where bass are picky about insects such as dragonflies and grasshoppers.
