Please be aware of voltage compatibility when using electrical appliances in Japan. Our products are designed for Japanese voltage specifications (90-110V) and use Japanese plug types (A or B). If you are using this product outside of Japan, a transformer is necessary to prevent malfunctions, as a conversion adapter only changes the plug shape and does not adjust voltage. We are not responsible for any damages or malfunctions caused by improper use, including operating the product without a transformer.

Product Information
Full details
The Yo Zuri 3D Crystal Minnow Jointed DD Lure is designed for saltwater anglers targeting species like Seabass. Its key benefit is the enhanced flash and attraction from internal 3D prism and double stainless steel hinges, allowing it to dive effectively. A potential caveat for international users is the need for a voltage transformer if using any associated electrical components (though this specific lure is not electrical). This lure features a realistic minnow profile, jointed body for lifelike action, and a diving lip that reaches depths of up to 4 meters.

FAQs
What species is this lure best suited for?
This lure is primarily designed for saltwater fishing and is particularly effective for targeting species like Seabass. Its realistic profile and action can also attract other predatory saltwater fish.
How deep does the Yo Zuri 3D Crystal Minnow Jointed DD dive?
The lure is designed to dive to depths of up to 4 meters (approximately 13 feet).
What are the dimensions and weight of the lure?
The lure measures 130mm in length and weighs 25g (7/8oz). It comes equipped with size #5 split rings and size #2 treble hooks.
Is this lure suitable for freshwater fishing?
While primarily designed for saltwater, its realistic appearance and action could potentially be effective for large predatory freshwater species in certain environments.
How should I care for this lure after use?
After each use in saltwater, rinse the lure thoroughly with fresh water to remove salt and grime. Allow it to dry completely before storing it in a lure box to maintain its condition and prevent corrosion.
What does 'Jointed DD' mean?
'Jointed' refers to the lure having multiple body sections connected by hinges, allowing for a more lifelike and erratic swimming action. 'DD' stands for 'Deep Diver', indicating its capability to reach greater depths.
Does this lure come pre-rigged?
The lure comes equipped with size #5 split rings and size #2 treble hooks, ready for attachment to your fishing line.
Troubleshooting
Lure spins or rolls excessively
Check the line tie point; ensure it's not twisted. Try adding a small, high-quality ball-bearing swivel above the lure if line twist is persistent.
Lure does not dive to the advertised depth
Ensure you are retrieving at a steady pace. Line angle also affects depth; a lower rod tip or faster retrieve can help it reach deeper. Consider using a thinner diameter fishing line.
Hooks snagging on structure
Try varying your retrieve speed and angle. If fishing very snaggy areas, consider replacing the treble hooks with single, weedless hooks, though this may affect action.
Pros and Cons
Pros
High flash and visual attraction from 3D prism technology.
Lifelike swimming action due to the jointed body.
Effective at reaching deeper water (up to 4 meters).
Durable construction suitable for saltwater conditions.
Realistic size and profile to attract a variety of game fish.
Cons
Requires a voltage transformer for use with Japanese-spec electrical appliances outside of Japan (note: this lure itself is not electrical, this is a general brand warning).
May be too large for very small baitfish imitation.
Floating action might require specific retrieve techniques to reach desired depths consistently.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Ensure the lure's hooks are sharp and securely attached to the split rings.
Tie directly to your fishing line or use a quality swivel.
For optimal performance, cast and retrieve with a moderate retrieve speed, incorporating occasional pauses or twitches to enhance the jointed action.
Compatibility:
This lure is designed for saltwater fishing and is effective for species like Seabass.
It uses standard fishing tackle; ensure your rod, reel, and line are appropriate for the lure's size (130mm, 25g) and target species.
Important Note: Yo Zuri products designed for the Japanese market operate on 90-110V with Type A or B plugs. If using any *electrical* Yo Zuri products in regions with different voltage, a voltage transformer is mandatory. A simple plug adapter is insufficient and can cause damage. This lure itself is not electrical.
Care:
Rinse the lure thoroughly with fresh water after each saltwater use to prevent corrosion.
Dry the lure completely before storing.
Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a lure box, ensuring hooks are protected.
