OVERVIEW
The LAGRA 115S is a sinking pencil that fixes the three classic weaknesses of the type: weak slow swimming, breaking down at speed and poor depth holding. Its body shape and weight balance are carried over from the ZELPHAS 133F, and three high-specific-gravity tungsten weights put 74% of its mass in the centre while keeping the nose and tail light.
The result swims level at every speed: a weightless, short-pitch slalom at dead slow, a floating sway-roll at medium speed and a darting roll when you speed up. It casts up to a measured 89 m and holds a shallow range even at dead slow, for the surf, river mouths and big rivers.
“Reaching the spot is not the end.”
Far-casting, slow-swimming and easy to control: the LAGRA 115S breaks three sinking-pencil conventions.

PERFORMANCE
ACTION & DESIGN
01
Three tungsten weights, 74% in the centre
A movable tungsten weight, a fixed moulded weight and a fixed tungsten weight concentrate 74% of the lure's mass in its centre, keeping the nose and tail light for a level swim.
02
It swims at every speed
Dead slow: a weightless, short-pitch slalom. Medium: a floating sway-roll. Fast: a dart with roll. It never breaks down, and it holds a shallow range even at dead slow.

03
A measured 89 m cast
A rear tungsten weight set in line from the tail tip steadies the lure in flight, for a measured maximum casting distance of 89 m.
04
Gill Diffuser, XENOSPINE and GRAVITYHEAD
A concave lower head (Gill Diffuser), a low-centre-of-gravity spine-and-rib frame (XENOSPINE) and a head that bites the water for a fast start and steady range (GRAVITYHEAD) work together to keep the LAGRA swimming true.

Techniques and tackle
Fish it with lift-and-fall, twitches and jerks, or skip it across the surface and swim it through boils. Recommended: a 9–11 ft ML–MH rod, PE 1.0–1.5 and a 16–30 lb leader; a short leader for sensitivity and tricky action, or an FN leader for distance and a steady action.
DEVELOPMENT
THREE CONVENTIONS BROKEN
Developed with field staff Satoshi Wada
ADUSTA field staff Satoshi Wada wanted a pencil sized between the SEA SHAKER and the ZELPHAS that casts far and slowly searches wide water. Three conventions stood in the way: far-casting pencils don't swim slowly, they only work a narrow range, and a floating swim and good control can't coexist.
Building on the body shape and weight balance of the ZELPHAS 133F, the LAGRA 115S breaks all three, with a level swim from dead slow to fast, a shallow range it can hold at any speed and a measured 89 m cast.
