Jackall Gekidaki Dropper NO.2.5 Clear Purple Zebra

A specialized dropper Egi designed for serious squid and calamari hunters using multi-Egi tandem rigs. The Gekidaki Dropper NO.2.5 combines aggressive darting action with a hypnotic flutter fall that mimics wounded baitfish—the trigger squid can't resist. The Clear Purple Zebra finish creates a translucent, natural appearance with zebra striping that excels in clear water and bright conditions, making it highly effective for targeting squid and calamari when they're feeding selectively or in high-pressure environments.

Dropper Egi Techniques for Squid:

• Tandem Rig Setup: Attach the dropper Egi 50–80cm above your main Egi. This creates a school effect that triggers competitive feeding behavior in squid
• Shaku-Shaku (Jerk-Pause): Sharp upward jerks of 30–50cm followed by controlled slack-line falls. Squid attack during the descent—watch for line tension or sideways movement
• Stay Fall: After the initial jerk sequence, let both Egis sink on a tight line for 3–5 seconds. This extended pause triggers cautious squid
• Double Strike Advantage: The tandem setup doubles your chances and allows squid to choose their preferred size or color

Rigging Notes: The NO.2.5 dropper size pairs perfectly with NO.2.5 to NO.3.5 main Egis. Pair with PE 0.6–0.8 mainline and 2–3lb fluorocarbon leader. The Clear Purple Zebra translucent finish is particularly effective in clear water and sunny conditions when squid are wary.
