Key Features

Revolutionary Triple-Cup Design
Unlike traditional pencil poppers, YAMATO features side cups on both sides of its head, in addition to a front cup. Combined with a protruding board under the jaw, this design generates powerful splashes and loud popping sounds, dramatically increasing its drawing power in open water.

Dual Line Eye System for Versatile Action

• High Appeal Eye (Lower Position): Perfect when bass are actively feeding near the surface. Produces an aggressive, high-pitch dog-walking action with forceful splashes and dome-like popping sounds. Ideal for covering water and drawing fish from a distance.

• Diving Eye (Upper Position): When bass are reluctant to break the surface, this setting enables subsurface retrieves. Strong jerks and short twitches produce a side-to-side flashing action like a jerkbait. On a steady retrieve, YAMATO performs a smooth S-shaped swimming motion just below the surface, effectively attracting shy or pressured fish.

Center Board for Superior Control
The strategically placed center board under the head acts like a rudder, enhancing stability, turning radius, and splash effect. This feature ensures consistent performance whether you’re walking the dog or retrieving steadily.

High Flash & Water Movement
YAMATO’s semi-flat body design increases water displacement and flashing, making it highly effective in both clear and stained waters. Its dynamic action and strong visual presence ensure it gets noticed, even in tough conditions.

Multi-Action Mastery
With YAMATO, there's no need to constantly switch lures. It functions as a topwater popper, a flashing jerkbait, and a subsurface swimbait — all in one. This versatility makes it a go-to choice for adapting to changing conditions without wasting time.
