Flipping and Pitching a Tokyo Rig w/ Alex Rudd
The streamlined Tokyo rig is ideal for pitching to heavy cover when paired with an appropriately heavy weight. Bass anglers who use it for this application often refer to it as the 'Punch Shot' rig for its ability to punch through matted vegetation and come out clean.
To pitch the lure, begin with the weight in one hand and the rod in the other. As you let go of the weight, lift the rod tip slightly to heighten the momentum of the pendulum motion that carries the lure to the target while line peels off the reel. Feather the spool with your thumb so the lure breaks the surface quietly and without backlashing. A straight, quick fall will generate reaction bites from fish that otherwise would not take the bait.
The rig also excels when pitched to wood such as laydown logs or stumps and dock pilings. It falls straight down beside the target object instead of swinging back toward the angler before reaching bottom as will a Texas-rigged lure.
Baitcasting gear gets the call. It lends precision when casting and power when setting the hook and pulling a big fish out of troublesome spots.
