Carpenter Utahime 95-210mm SH / SH-L Lures

Carpenter Utahime 95-210mm SH / SH-L

The Carpenter Utahime 95-210mm SH / SH-L is a slender-profile topwater lure designed to provide a different presentation from Carpenter's traditional diving pencils such as Gamma and Blue Fish.

Carpenter developed the Utahime with a slimmer silhouette and lighter water-pushing action. This distinctive action can be particularly effective when fish are not responding to conventional diving-pencil presentations, giving anglers another option for adapting to changing bait, sea conditions, and fish behavior.

For Hiramasa (Yellowtail Kingfish) and GT, Carpenter has found the Utahime effective with longer-stroke actions. When targeting tuna, shorter strokes can be effective, particularly around active feeding schools. Stroke length, speed, and pauses can be adjusted according to the target species and fishing conditions.

Hook & Split Ring Recommendation

Carpenter recommends approximately 10 g per hook with a 250 lb split ring for the Utahime 95-210.

These specifications are design recommendations. Hook and split-ring size may be adjusted according to the target species, fishing conditions, and desired lure buoyancy.

Utahime Action

The Utahime's slender body and light water-pushing action distinguish it from Carpenter's Gamma and Blue Fish series.

This different action gives anglers another presentation when fish are reluctant to respond to standard diving pencils. Longer strokes can be effective when targeting Hiramasa and GT, while shorter strokes can be used for tuna, particularly around active feeding schools.

Proven on Trophy Fish

The Carpenter Utahime 95-210 SH / SH-L has demonstrated its capability on powerful offshore gamefish in catches documented by Carpenter.

Carpenter's official catch records include a 46 kg (approx. 101 lb) Yellowfin Tuna caught on the Utahime 95-210 SH-L in 2025. Carpenter's 2026 catch records also document a Bluefin Tuna caught on the Utahime 95-210 SH.

These documented field results demonstrate the Utahime's capability as a serious offshore casting lure for large tuna, GT, and Hiramasa.

Please Note

Weight is approximate and may vary slightly between the SH and SH-L models and individual lures. Colors, patterns, and finishes may also vary slightly.

Hook and split-ring specifications are Carpenter's design recommendations and may be adjusted depending on the target species and desired lure buoyancy.
