Here in South Korea and in Japan they are called 'sight marker' stickers.

Not 100% but it looks like a CHR swimbait to me.

Yr weather app. Works worldwide. Not sure if it's available for Apple.

I have found that the transfer tail really does help out the action of the TK in glide mode, insofar as it seems to be easier to keep the bait in a consistent cadence. One other thing that I have noticed with both the TK and K9 is you can get them to dive deeper with a medium speed cadence. If you watch the bait, after it turns and stops, it will hover for a second and then turn nose down (which is the natural resting position). Then if you start the next input while it is in the nose down position, it will continue to work deeper. I have been able to replicate this with both the TK and the K9, glide mode and short lip / v-tail configurations.

I see a bunch of freakazoid buggy eyed bass being caught in Japan at night on a variety of yokomati style baits (shallow lip, single joint, v-tail). I'm pretty sure that @Crazybassfisheridentified this pattern but I'll hold off on it since he has the juice on this one.

If you're trying to be compact, a hard box is the wrong choice since there's always dead space. Bait wraps come in various shapes and sizes. The multi-pocket roll-up style are not for me, but many like and use them. Individual style wraps like @Fallof74 used to bring to market are my personal preference. Invariably the Home Depot Husky Document bags will also get mentioned. A small box with some extra terminal (rings / trebles / lead tape / grenade weights / DRT lips and tails / etc) plus essential tools (pliers / cutters / etc). Edit: just leave the conventional tackle at home, your bag will be much lighter. Then you don't need to bring a convenient setup either.

Sold my Sly because the Baitsanity gets more attention in my waters. Also I'm not timid about putting it in tough spots since they are relatively affordable and easily available.

@JohnMarino do you think the Jaw Jack'n CT 700 is a good candidate for this rigging method? I know you're familiar with those baits...

Also, Episode 89 with Ben Linnell may be relevant.

Stock hardware on DRT baits is solid. No need to change out unless you have a specific hardware preference.

Kazki Hotta (known as KZ, a DRT field staff in AZ) just posted on his story about using low viscosity acrylic cement to seal cracks etc. in ABS baits.

I think a lot of the Signal baits look really good, definitely very limited if any North American distributors.

The Valkyrie VKC-711XH-4 is a great rod for treble hook baits. I regularly throw Baitsanity Gill glide, TK, K9, and Wade Hoggs on it with no problem. It is too parabolic for Beast hooks tho. If you're wanting something that can work for treble or Beast hook baits, the Leviathan Daily is a good option.
