Ise-ebi (Japanese spiny lobster) trap, no weight. The fishing method is to attach a weight and the rig to a swivel, then attach wire to the hole on the plate. Place bait such as Japanese sardines or sardines on the plate and wrap with wire. ☆ After dropping the rig, the tip of the rod will bend slightly, depending on the weight and stiffness of the rod. Wait for a bite. When an Ise-ebi is on, the rod tip will bend, so slowly raise the rod and when you feel the weight, quickly lift the rod tip. Besides Ise-ebi, you may also catch octopus, crabs, and fish. ☆ Hooks can be replaced. If you have a size 7 wrench, you can replace the hook when it loosens or is damaged. ☆ I used to catch nearly 100 lobsters a year with this rig.
