Carpenter Strike Eagle FG Series – SE120-230mm / SE150-245mm

The Carpenter Strike Eagle FG Series is a high-specific-gravity version of Carpenter's Strike Eagle, offered in multiple FG configurations for serious offshore casting applications. The current FG lineup includes the SE120-230mm FG and SE150-245mm FG, with FG-N and FG-MD models.

The Strike Eagle was developed with a different action character from Carpenter lures such as the Gamma, Blue Fish, Maihime, Gen-ei and Hayabusa. Carpenter designed the Strike Eagle to provide another presentation option when changing lure action can make the difference in triggering a strike.

One of the strengths of the Strike Eagle is its controllability in challenging surface conditions. According to Carpenter, the lure is particularly easy to work when small wind waves or current-driven surface chop make it difficult to impart clean action to a lure. It is also designed to be easy to operate from boats with higher casting decks.

The Strike Eagle responds to short- through medium-stroke actions, giving anglers flexibility to adjust their presentation according to sea conditions and fish activity. Carpenter lists Hiramasa (yellowtail/kingfish), GT, tuna and buri (Japanese amberjack) among the target species for the Strike Eagle.

Carpenter develops its lures through field testing and states that its lure lineup is designed around different lure types, sizes and actions so anglers can adapt to changing bait, fish activity and sea conditions.

The Carpenter Strike Eagle SE 75‑195 is a high‑performance diving pencil designed for long‑distance casting, sharp diving action, and fast, controlled swimming. Handcrafted from select wood and individually tuned by Carpenter craftsmen, the SE 75‑195 delivers explosive reaction strikes from tuna, GT, kingfish, amberjack, and other powerful pelagic predators.

The Strike Eagle series is engineered to dive cleanly and track straight even in rough surface conditions.

Its tuned diving pencil action is especially effective when predators respond to speed, sudden directional changes, or tight swimming patterns.

Action & Performance The lure produces a crisp dive followed by a tight, fast, high‑response swim. Its hydrodynamic profile allows anglers to work the lure aggressively without losing stability, making it ideal for situations where fish are chasing small bait or reacting to rapid lure movement.

Carpenter Strike Eagle SE150 L Quiet – 150mm Class Diving Pencil

Made in Japan.

The Carpenter Strike Eagle SE150 L Quiet is a precision‑crafted diving pencil designed for long‑distance casting, subtle action, and controlled swimming in tough offshore conditions. Built from hand‑selected wood and individually tuned by Carpenter craftsmen, the SE150 L Quiet delivers a softer, more restrained movement compared to standard Strike Eagle models — ideal for situations where fish are pressured, cautious, or feeding selectively.

The “Quiet” tuning reduces excessive splash and noise, allowing the lure to slip naturally into the water column and produce a tight, clean swim. This makes it highly effective when predators are responding to finesse presentations or when the bite is slow and requires a more delicate approach.

Concept & Target Species The SE150 L Quiet is designed for tuna, GT, kingfish, amberjack, and other pelagic predators that react to subtle, controlled lure movement. Its tuned diving action excels when fish are feeding on small bait or when they are hesitant to strike aggressive lures.

Action & Performance The lure produces a smooth dive followed by a tight, stable swim with minimal noise. The Quiet tuning helps maintain a natural presence in the water, making it ideal for pressured fish, calm conditions, or situations where a softer presentation outperforms high‑action lures.

Specifications

• Length: 150mm class
• Weight: (varies slightly by wood density; typically mid‑weight Strike Eagle profile)
• Buoyancy: Floating
• Material: Wood
• Construction: Full through‑wire

The Strike Eagle series is known for its ability to cut through surface chop, dive cleanly, and maintain a stable swimming posture even at high retrieve speeds. The SE 45‑165 model features a compact, lightweight profile that excels when fish are feeding on smaller bait or when conditions require a lure that can be worked quickly and precisely.

Concept & Target Species The SE 45‑165 is designed for high‑speed casting and is ideal for tuna, GT, kingfish, amberjack, and other fast‑moving predators. Its tuned diving action makes it effective when fish are responding to speed, sudden direction changes, or tight swimming patterns.

Action & Performance The lure produces a crisp dive followed by a tight, fast swim with a controlled roll. This movement is engineered to switch predators into feeding mode, especially when they are chasing small bait or reacting to rapid lure motion. The Strike Eagle’s hydrodynamics allow anglers to work the lure aggressively without losing stability.

The Carpenter Bluefish BF 100 NB is a high‑performance offshore casting lure designed to trigger predatory response through its uniquely tuned swimming action.

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.
* Please change the compatible hook and split ring as needed.
