A DVice is a cleverly designed casting weight, which incorporates a plastic tube fixed directly behind it. The purpose of this tube is to protect soft/live baits from the stresses of casting, whilst improving the aerodynamic properties of the end tackle when used in conjuction with large/bulky baits. Upon impacting with the surface of the water the bait is ejected, as the tube floods due to specially designed channels allowing jets of water to flow through the chamber.
