With menacing eyes and a bully-like demeanor, the new line of ARASHI (a-ra-shee) lures is Storm® pro angler Brandon Palaniuk approved and stays true to its roots, delivering a fully cranked storm of actions that will have Bass barreling in for the kill, and anglers hanging on for the thrill. The new triple-threat series of ARASHI lures from Storm includes the short and stocky Silent Square 3 and 5, the ominous Rattling Flat 7 and, rounding out this family, the deadly Rattling Deep 10.
“Storm hasn’t just set the bar with the new series of ARASHI lures, they’ve created a whole new category of bad-to-the-core baits that are ideal for a multitude of water, structure and fishing applications,” explains Palaniuk. “Whether anglers need a lure that has a lively rolling action, a tight wiggle action or a moderate rolling action paired with the perfect tail kick, ARASHI has them covered with unmatched comprise.”
All lures are equipped with circuit-board-style lips and an intricately built, patent pending self-tuning line tie, which Palaniuk says makes the ARASHI an unmatched force and a Bass angler’s dream bait.
“The circuit board lip tracks the lure true at slow speeds, while precisely and quickly getting it down to maximum diving depth. Combine that with the self-tuning line tie, which is a free-moving design that keeps the lure tracking accurately, and anglers are ensured of nonstop, unrivaled fishing action.”
Leading off the family is the ARASHI Silent Square 3 and 5, which run with a lively rolling action and a pronounced tail kick. Their growling large head extends to a thin sharp tail, creating unadulterated buoyancy to back out of cover, while the square lip design adds increased deflection — creating the perfect match for contacting structure.
The Silent Square is an ultra quiet, non-rattling bait perfect for targeting wary or pressured fish in shallow water. The Silent Square 3 is 2-1/8 inches long and weighs 1/2 ounce with a running depth of 3 feet, while the Silent Square 5 is 2-3/8 inches long, weighing slightly more at 5/8 ounce with a running depth of 5 feet.
Next is the new ARASHI Rattling Flat 7, which swims with a tight wiggling action, creating maximum flash and vibration that brings the angry out of bass. The multi-ball rattle provides a loud, variable pitch and its long-cast design sets sail for distance with meticulous accuracy. At 2-1/8 inches long and weighing 7/16 of an ounce, the Rattling Flat 7 runs at the 7 foot water column, delivering jaw-dropping results.
Rounding out the ARASHI family is the lethal hawg hunting Rattling Deep 10. As the name suggests, this outlaw swims at 10 feet with a moderate rolling action for the right amount of search, and a truckload of tail kick. The internal multi-ball rattle produces a loud, yet variable pitch for added attraction, and the long-cast design gets the bait on mark with the subtlest of touches. At 2-3/8 inches long and weighing 9/16 ounce, this ARASHI is ready for battle.
All lures come with premium Black Nickel VMC® treble hooks in sizes 02 and 04, and are available in 12 alluring color patterns including Hot Blue Shad, Bluegill, Baby Bass, Crappie, Blue Back Herring, Wakasagi, Rusty Craw, Mossy Chartreuse Craw, Red Craw, Hot Chartreuse, Parrot and Black Silver Shad.
The new ARASHI series from Storm begs for action and will have anglers holding on as the on-the-water storm ensues.
