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.

Carpenter BC Popper Normal 75-145 Lure:

BC popper Old-fashioned BC popper was born in 1996 from Carpenter. This popper itself has existed since I was making lures as a hobby before I started carpenter. In the fall of 1994, the year before I started carpenter, I caught yellowtail with this popper at Shiraishi Guri off the coast of Tango Peninsula. I threw it from the roof of the ship and took it out next to the bird (slow popping). At that time, no one was throwing a top water lure in Genesis of the Tango lure game, and it was a super-minor fishing with few people even jigging. I think this yellowtail is probably the first yellowtail caught at the top in Tango.

Effective Fish Species

Tuna Blue Blacked Fish (Yellowtail, amberjack), GT (Giant Trevally/Ulua).

Effective Situation

"BC Popper" is effective in the situation where tuna easily reacts to pop sounds. When aiming for GT, fast winding in the shallow area is effective.

Action

- "BC Popper 75-145 Normal" When aiming for tuna, stop and go popping is performed. When aiming for GT, it is better to just pull fast.

- "BC Popper 75-145 LQ" When aiming for tuna, stop and go popping is performed. When aiming for GT, it is better to just pull fast. Stop and go popping may also be good.

* Hook is the weight per piece.
* SP ring is based on Carpenter.
