Carpenter Blue Fish BF 60-170 Lure:

Weight: 60g

Length: 170mm

Made in Japan

Made in Japan.

The Carpenter Bluefish BF 100 NB is a high‑performance offshore casting lure designed to trigger predatory response through its uniquely tuned swimming action. Unlike the Gamma series, the Bluefish incorporates an “extremely unique movement” that has been refined through years of modification and evolution. This model is built for anglers targeting powerful pelagic species in challenging surface conditions.

Concept & Target Species The BF100‑200 is engineered for large-game casting and is ideal for amberjack, GT, tuna, and large yellowtail. Its design excels in sea conditions with significant height differences, making it a reliable lure when the surface is unstable or turbulent.

Fish Mark Version This BF100‑200 includes the special “Fish Mark” on the belly, which differs from the standard BF100. The Fish Mark indicates a version tuned for more active action. Depending on conditions, the normal BF100 may outperform the Fish Mark version, or vice versa. Anglers can switch between versions to maximize strike results based on fish behavior.

Made in Japan.

The Carpenter Bluefish BF 75‑180SV is a high‑performance offshore casting lure designed for powerful pelagic species. Built from hand‑selected wood and tuned individually by Carpenter craftsmen, the BF 75‑180SV delivers long‑distance casting, stable swimming, and a sharp, responsive action that triggers reaction strikes from tuna, GT, kingfish, and amberjack.

Compared to the larger Bluefish models, the BF 75‑180SV features a slimmer, faster profile that cuts through surface chop and maintains a controlled, straight swim even at high retrieve speeds. Its movement differs from the Gamma series, offering a unique swimming signature that has been refined through years of Carpenter development.

Concept & Target Species The BF 75‑180SV is designed for high‑speed casting and is ideal for tuna, GT, kingfish, amberjack, and other aggressive pelagics. Its balanced weight and hydrodynamics make it effective in rough surface conditions and long‑range feeding zones.

Action & Performance The lure produces a tight, fast swimming action with a controlled roll, allowing anglers to work it quickly without losing stability. This tuned movement helps switch predators into feeding mode, especially when fish are chasing small bait or reacting to speed.

Carpenter Damsel 120-185mm / PP

The Carpenter Damsel 120-185mm is a floating topwater popper designed to offer a different presentation when GT, Hiramasa, and Tuna are not responding to conventional pencil lures.

Carpenter redesigned the Damsel's body shape and weight placement to create its own distinctive movement and surface action. One of its key characteristics is a “sweet” popping sound, which Carpenter notes can be particularly effective when targeting tuna.

The Damsel excels in calm, flat-water conditions, making it an excellent alternative when fish are reluctant to respond to diving pencils or other traditional surface presentations.

Specifications

Model: Damsel 120-185mm / Damsel 120-185mm PP
Length: 185 mm
Weight: Approx. 120 g*
Type: Floating (F)
Recommended Hook Weight: Approx. 11 g per hook
Recommended Split Ring: Carpenter 250 lb
Target Species: GT, Hiramasa (Yellowtail Kingfish), Tuna
Made in Japan

Action & Recommended Conditions

The Damsel produces a distinctive surface movement combined with its characteristic sweet popping sound.

Carpenter particularly recommends the Damsel in calm and flat-water conditions. When GT, Hiramasa, or Tuna are showing little interest in pencil lures, switching to the Damsel's popper presentation can give fish a completely different stimulus.

Proven in the Field

During Carpenter's testing in Okinawa under windless, glass-calm conditions, prototype Damsels produced an impressive five GT in approximately half a day of fishing.

Carpenter has also documented the Damsel being used successfully for GT, Tuna, and Sailfish, demonstrating its versatility for serious offshore casting applications.

Hook & Split Ring Recommendation

Carpenter recommends approximately 11 g per hook with a 250 lb split ring.

Hook and split-ring specifications are design recommendations and may be adjusted depending on target species, fishing conditions, and desired lure buoyancy.

Please Note

Approx. 120 g is Carpenter's published specification for the standard Damsel 120 without hooks. Weight may vary depending on model/type.

Colors and finishes may vary slightly between individual lures.

Performance

The GRM is designed as an offshore popper with an emphasis on casting performance and consistent action.

Carpenter's own catch records include an angler using the GRM 100-210 SH who specifically reported excellent casting distance and noted that the lure was easy to use with very few action errors. That lure produced a 33.8 kg (approx. 75 lb) Yellowfin Tuna off Japan in 2025.

Proven on Trophy Fish

The GRM has already produced impressive catches documented by Carpenter.

A GRM 210mm SH was used to catch a 30 kg (approx. 66 lb) GT in Komodo, Indonesia. During the six-day trip, the angler landed eight GT and reported that the fish responded to the GRM when other lures were not producing.

Even more impressive, Carpenter documents a 183 kg (approx. 403 lb) Bluefin Tuna caught in Nagasaki, Japan on the GRM 120 SH in June 2025.

Available GRM Configurations

GRM 100-210mm: SH-L / SH / MD / LM
