Clover Creation Hard bait Trefle Creation Mirage JT 220 Transformer

The Mirage JT 220 Transformer is an ultra-innovative swimbait, affectionately nicknamed the Transformer by its creator, Iroshi Takahashi. This revolutionary lure from Trefle Creation is the first to incorporate a joint spacing adjustment system, allowing the movement of the rear part to be adjusted. Thus, it is possible to modulate the amplitude of the tail's movement, and therefore the width of its S-shaped swim. The wider this swim, the slower the lure can be retrieved, which is ideal for imitating prey.

Another advantage of the Mirage JT 220 Transformer is its removable bib, an innovation that allows it to swim at two different depths. This reversible bib allows it to dive to a certain depth in one direction and to another depth in the other direction, thus offering remarkable versatility to adapt to various fishing conditions and biotopes. A real revolution in the world of lures!

When retrieved linearly with the reel, the Mirage JT 220 Transformer develops a very natural S-shaped swim, amplified by its front attachment positioned horizontally. This swim is particularly effective in attracting predators. When jerked, the swimbait deviates with sharp lateral swerves while wobbling on itself, perfectly imitating the erratic movements of injured prey.

This swimbait also features a revolutionary system, the pendulum lock system, which allows it to achieve record casting distances for a two-part articulated lure. This patented system locks the mobile tail during casting, allowing the lure to remain perfectly aligned, like an arrow. In addition, the Mirage JT 220 is equipped with a tungsten ball mass transfer system in the tail, which, combined with the pendulum lock, allows it to reach exceptional distances.

The exceptional finish quality of the Mirage JT 220 makes it a perfect choice for fishing large predators, such as beautiful pike and large black bass. It is interesting to note that Iroshi Takahashi initially designed it for sea use, targeting large predators such as bass, bluefish and barracudas - a rare fact for a swimbait.
