DAIWA’s Field Marketing Manager, Chris Martin, explained. “The Last Ace 128 offers a slightly larger profile than most FFS minnow-style baits on the market. The bigger silhouette is designed to root out the biggest, most aggressive fish in the pod.”

The Last Ace 128’s power mid-strolling effect is accomplished by its noticeably up-curved tail design. “The unique shape and angle of the tail makes it effortless for anglers to achieve that tantalizing rolling action so popular with FFS,” said Martin.

Its action is further enhanced by a specialized salt constitution. “The salt composition is evenly dispersed through only the belly half of the Last Ace 128,” said Martin. “Rigged weightless and power strolled, it causes the bait to sink horizontally and produce a shimmy akin to an injured baitfish. Its offset weighting is the key.”

Infused with baitfish scent throughout, the Last Ace 128 has an exceptionally flexible belly and tail, while the purposely denser top yields exceptional durability around the hook.

Cosmetically, fish will appreciate the Last Ace 128’s raised, 3D “real eyes” and dotted lateral line, which accentuate its authenticity.

RIGGING THE LAST ACE 128

The slow sinking and exceptionally durable Last Ace 128 can be rigged weightless with a swimbait hook. Downward into the nose, back up through the body, and then slide the hookpoint into the molded notch on the bait’s back. The hookpoint stays hidden but is easily activated by a striking fish. Rigging as such also makes the Last Ace 128 virtually weedless for operating through vegetation.

It can also be paired with a jig. Go lighter for working the middle of the water column and heavier if you want to operate near or on the bottom. Long-shanked jigs with quality baitholders work best.

Lastly, and most simply, impale the middle of the Last Ace 128’s back from side to side with a kahle-style hook. Flip it out, let it sink, and twitch it around. Looks like a baitfish taking its last gulp of air.

Unique upturned tail produces lifelike rolling action.
