The Japanese Wind method (rhymes with ‘find’ by the way) is one of my favourite, all-time lure fishing techniques in any size category, for targeting active fish. It can also be called Darting or Dart Game. For LRF, the sub-category is defined as Micro-Wind. So what is it?
Soft Plastic Lures
The choice in small, soft plastic lures suitable for LRF and light lure fishing is immense. Take your pick from shads and paddle tails, darting lures, pin tails, worms and creature baits. All in every conceivable colour. If you are looking for inspiration, browse through the dozens of posts that feature my successful soft-plastics and the many varied catches made.

AquaWave Mushi
The AquaWave Mushi is not new to this website. It’s one of my favourite lures for lots of species when the conditions allow me to throw tiny lures and jig-heads. I got that chance again recently and set about seeing what species I could catch.
