The Berkley DEX Strider 9 cm Ayu is a modern topwater lure that blends walk-the-dog movement with spitting action for maximum surface attraction. Compact and weighing 9 g, it casts long and straight even in windy or choppy conditions. The Strider struts side-to-side while spitting bursts of water and leaving a bubble trail, provoking aggressive surface strikes from saltwater predators. Rigged with corrosion-resistant F19 trebles, it’s built to handle powerful fish.
