The Explorer Shallow 15g is a specialized tenya designed for fishing in shallow waters, including from the shore. Its unique flat and wide profile provides excellent buoyancy, allowing for a slow, gliding descent and a natural presentation of the bait. The keel-shaped underside ensures the tenya remains upright upon reaching the bottom, minimizing the risk of snagging. This design is particularly effective for targeting sparids such as gilt-head bream, pagrus, dentex, boarfish, and sar.
- Anti-Reverse Rod: A metal anti-reverse rod secures the shrimp in place, preventing it from sliding during animation or in strong currents.
- Main Hook: Reinforced and ultra-sharp, the hook's shape perfectly matches that of the shrimp, ensuring a natural presentation.
- Assist Hook: A strong iron round hook with formidable sharpness, ideal for sparids. Positioned in the shrimp's head, it strikes at the slightest touch, leaving no chance for the fish.
- 65 lb Braid with Silicone Strands: The assist hook's braid features fine fluorescent silicone strands matching the tenya's color. These long, flexible strands mimic the legs and antennae of a shrimp, enhancing the lure's attractiveness through their mobility and subtle vibrations in the water.
- "Stand Up" Position: The specific flat part beneath the tenya ensures it always lies flat upon touching the bottom, with the hook positioned at a 45° angle relative to the bottom, reducing the risk of snagging.
- Keel-Shaped Design: The keel-shaped underside allows the tenya to glide smoothly over the bottom without catching, providing a natural, gliding motion.
