The Shimano TP-Orca Squid (190) is a long-distance surface plug engineered for reaching distant schools of feeding pelagic fish. Its aerodynamic body and proprietary internal weight system deliver exceptional casting range and produce a rolling, diving action that imitates a wounded baitfish—perfect for provoking explosive strikes from predators such as tuna. The lure swims just beneath the surface during the retrieve, creating a natural disturbance that triggers reaction bites even in pressured conditions. Built with full through-wire construction and heavy-duty offshore hooks, the TP-Orca is designed to withstand the punishing power of large, fast-running saltwater species. Durable, easy to work, and highly versatile, it is a staple for serious offshore anglers.

Media & How-to

Rigging Tips:

Use long sweeps for rolling/diving action; steady retrieve keeps plug just subsurface for natural wounded-fish movement.
