O.S.P Soft Baits

Japanese O.S.P soft plastic lures, developed by successful tournament angler Toshinari Namiki, excel in perfect craftsmanship down to the last detail. Thanks to the extremely soft material and strong squid scent, they represent a reliable weapon for lethargic predators at times when fish no longer react to regular lures.

When choosing, focus on the presentation method and the type of water body. The range includes classic shads for active retrieves, detailed craw and shrimp imitations for bottom fishing, as well as specialized profiles for weightless fishing (no-sinker). The specific shape and salt distribution in the body precisely determine whether the lure falls horizontally, dives at an angle directly into cover, or assumes a natural defensive posture on the bottom.

Shads and Soft Jerkbaits

• O.S.P DoLive Shad – an exceptionally versatile shad that actively swims even during a weightless free fall. It works reliably at the slowest and fastest retrieve speeds and is also available in a reinforced SW version for saltwater fishing.
• O.S.P DoLive Stick and DoLive Stick FAT – a hybrid between a worm and a stickbait for technical fishing. While the thinner tail section comes to life on the fall, the bulky head allows for aggressive twitching. The thickened FAT version also provides long casts and better penetration through cover.
• O.S.P HP MiNNOW 5" – a subtle pintail with a V-tail designed for conditions when fish are only following the prey. A sharp twitch creates a provoking escape action, which often forces predators to react instantly.

Craws, Shrimps and Backslide Lures

• O.S.P DoLive Craw – a realistic craw imitation designed so that the claws and tentacles work independently of each other. The sensory parts quiver provocatively even when the body is already lying motionless on the bottom.
• O.S.P DoLive Shrimp – a detailed shrimp with reverse legs that purposely slow down the fall and send subtle vibrations into the water. Upon touching down, it consistently maintains the optimal posture for a solid hookset.
• O.S.P DoLive Shot 4.5" – a compact lure with a rich skirt designed for gliding backward under cover (backslide). The specific body shape and heavier rear section ensure a smooth reverse glide directly under overhanging branches or reeds.

Finesse and Specialized Lures

• O.S.P DoLive Crawler 4.5" – a straight worm with optimal flexibility. Its natural action stands out especially with subtle rod work, making it ideal for Wacky and Neko rigs on highly pressured waters.
• O.S.P Saikoro Rubber Non Salt 12 mm – a tiny, cube-shaped lure with a rubber skirt, developed for extremely effective sight-fishing. Despite its minimalist dimensions, it pushes a significant amount of water and triggers aggressive strikes on a free fall.

Tip: If you plan to target fish hiding just below the surface or in the water column, try rigging the DoLive Stick and DoLive Shad models completely weightless on a bare offset hook. This gives you the most natural falling action, which is often the best strategy for wary predators.
