Overview The Imakatsu Bushido is a versatile craw style soft plastic lure. The lure comes in two sizes, 3 inches and 4 inches. The 3-inch model is great when the fish are on smaller bait.

This crankbait has a very tight side to side wobble with not too much roll. The body shape is like a fatter shad style body. This style creates a hybrid between the tight shad style action to a big wide wobble that a square bill has. The bill on this crankbait is almost shaped like a spoon. This style of bill is a great style for any speed...
