Wearing a classic Fire Tiger pattern, this Matzuo Asai Shad UV features a high-contrast transition from a dark back to vibrant orange and yellow sides broken by vertical bars. This 2" (5 cm) floating shad profile is built with an internal rattle for a noisy presence during casting. Its clear diving bill is engineered to reach depths ranging from 0 to 4 ft (0 - 1.2 m), offering versatility in shallow cover. One of the most striking aspects of product code 9244 is the specialized fluorescent finish that glows intensely under UV light, providing high visibility in stained water. Weighing 1/4 oz (7 g), the lure is equipped with two black nickel treble hooks and remains in 5/5 condition. This USA-designed crankbait is a standout example of Matzuo's focus on visual attractors for low-light environments.
