Concept and Design
Two are the main factors that characterize the model: the type of joint and the fan-shaped lip. The decision to reduce the joint part only from the third rear of the hull has a twofold purpose: to build a much more natural swim and not like a snake, typical of “swim baits” and minimize friction with the air during the cast phase, thus surpassing the characteristic defect of the jointed which consists in having a range usually reduced. The fan-shaped lip, which characterizes the Buginu series probably gives its best in the series “Bìu” (in Sardinian language means “alive”) because it guarantees a natural and extremely tight movement with a very reduced roll. The lip in this model was intentionally undersize to accentuate further the naturalness of swimming and to allow broader customization. Although the type of lures mainly focuses on bass, the Buginu 105 Bìu can be used with great success in fresh water. The lip shape has been filed as a “patent P”.
Action
Slow retrieve: light wobbling
Regular retrieve: wobbling & light rolling
Fast retrieve: wide wobbling & rolling
Jerking: to stimulate the fish aggressiveness you may want to give strong accelerations with the rod in single or multiple sequence, so as to force the lure to make large skids. Intersperse jerks with pause and/or variable retrieval.
