Do you offer free shipping?
We offer free domestic shipping on most orders over $150 subtotal. This excludes oversized and bulky items such as rods, blanks, gaffs, some tackle boxes, lobster nets, landing nets and other large items. Any 1 piece rod over 7'10" in length often incurs the biggest oversize fees charged by domestic shipping companies although we do have lower rates via other carriers on the West Coast. Any additional shipping fees will be automatically calculated at checkout before any billing is done.
What countries do you ship to?
We currently ship products within the US and to almost every country in the world, covering all available destination via UPS and DHL. International shipping times depend on the products and destination. Shipping rates are automatically calculated at checkout, for most countries we also collect Duties and Taxes and prepay them so you do not have to deal with the carrier or customs.
How long will it take to get my order?
Standard shipping can take 3-8 business days depending on location and order volume. If you have requested spooling on your reel or rigging on your lures then it could take an additional day or two. Next day & 2 day shipping is available on most domestic orders (for an additional charge). Orders placed after 12pm Pacific Standard Time will be processed the next business day.
What carriers do you ship with?
We work with UPS, FedEx, US Postal Service, GLS and DHL. When your order qualifies for free shipping or has a rod that qualifies for discounted shipping we reserve the right to choose which carrier it is sent with, otherwise you can pick the service you want. UPS Ground ranges from 1 to 7 day delivery, USPS Priority Mail is typically 1-3 days but is not a guaranteed express service, and USPS Ground Advantage takes roughly 3-7 business days.

The Deco Pen II is several generations into a long line of effective floating stickbait, handmade in Japan of natural wood. It's 160mm and about 45 grams with no hardware, hooks and split rings will add another 8-10g, making it great for casting on anywhere from 30-60lb line for yellowfin, bluefin, yellowtail and dorado. I've caught lots of yellowfin on the last generation of lures and with the updated brighter finish these will be sure to do the same. You'll want a softer tip rod to work floating stickbaits properly, ideally a spinning setup for the best performance.
Floating stickbaits have been a staple of the pelagic offshore fishing in Japan for many decades now, as ubiquitous as surface iron fishing is in Southern California. While they are limited to near surface fishing they have a tendency to attract and bring up deeper fish within the same range as our live bait.
The nice part about floating stickbaits over other types of lures is the amount of different actions you and impart into the bait just by changing how you sweep the rod or your retrieve. If you do a long sweep with continuous retrieve you can get the lure to dive beneath the surface and continue to swim in an S pattern until you stop and let the lure surface again mimicking a stunned bait. With short sweeps and less retrieve you can get the lure to dart under the surface, swim for a bit before surfacing more closely resembling a wounded bait. With a constant retrieve it will stay on the surface and dart side to side.
