FAQ

In many regions, using live bait is illegal.

Live bait is also difficult to store, dies easily, and can be more expensive.

Kanama Smart Bait allows you to use low-cost, easy-to-store dead bait, while making it move more realistically than live bait through bio-mimetic motion.

You can fish legally without worrying about local regulations and still enjoy (or surpass) the effectiveness of live bait.
Yes.

Kanama Smart Bait continues producing stable motion even in low-temperature environments, making it highly effective for ice fishing where fish activity is low.
No.

Smart Bait works through internal mechanical movements applied only to the baitfish.
It does not release harmful energy, chemicals, or electrical stimulation into the water.

It does not harm target fish

It does not affect the water environment

It does not disturb other marine life

Safe for all legal fishing areas.
Different Smart Bait models support different baitfish sizes:

Smart Bait ProX: 20–45 cm
Best for offshore big game fish.

Smart Bait Pro: 20–40 cm
Ideal for coastal and mid-large species.

Smart Bait Mini / Air: 13–20 cm
Suitable for freshwater, nearshore, and general use.

If you’re unsure, start with the most universal and stable range:
15–25 cm (works well for Mini / Pro / ProX).
Most regions worldwide enjoy free shipping.

Only a small number of remote or island locations require a minor shipping fee. The system will clearly display this before checkout.
Kanama Luminous Live Shrimp Hooks come in three sizes:

Small (27.3 mm × 11.8 mm)

For 35–60 mm shrimp.
Lightweight and beginner-friendly.

Medium (34.3 mm × 15.4 mm)

For 50–90 mm shrimp.
The most versatile size for general use.

Large (38.9 mm × 17.8 mm)

For 60–130 mm shrimp.
Designed for targeting larger fish.

All hooks use high-carbon steel for strength and white-nickel plating for excellent saltwater corrosion resistance.
Yes, you can use supermarket-purchased dead fish.

However, we do not recommend using old frozen fish, as the meat becomes too soft and does not stay firmly on the hook.

The best choice is fresh dead fish or fish that has been thawed only recently.
Kanama Smart Bait improves catch rate through multiple bio-mimetic attraction technologies:

Realistic swimming rhythms
Internal mechanical arm + motion algorithm simulate real baitfish movement.

Injured and escape motions
Irregular shakes and darting motions trigger predator instincts.

Low-frequency vibrations & sound waves
Attract fish from both nearby and far distances.

Effective in deep water, night fishing, lakes, rivers, and coastal areas
Works even in low-visibility or low-light conditions.

These signals trigger predatory reflexes, making fish more likely to strike.

It includes full tutorials for usage, cleaning, and maintenance.

Proper cleaning ensures the internal mechanism isn’t blocked by debris.
Smart Bait is built with a high-strength, engineering-grade composite housing designed to withstand repeated strikes, impacts, and long-term underwater use.

Based on extensive real-world testing and user feedback, cases where Smart Bait is physically cracked by fish bites are extremely rare, even when targeting sharp-toothed predators such as barracuda.

If Smart Bait suffers structural damage caused directly by fish attacks under normal use conditions, this is covered under our warranty.

Not covered:
• Loss caused by mainline (braid or mono) breakage.

Covered under Loss Insurance:
• If an anti-bite steel leader is used and is bitten through, resulting in the loss of Smart Bait, we will provide a replacement.
• Video proof is required.

Please refer to our Loss Insurance page for details:
https://www.kanama.com/pages/loss-insurance-1
All electronic-related issues are fully covered under warranty, including but not limited to:

• Tail stops moving
• Noticeable battery life degradation
• Charging failure
• Any internal electronic malfunction

Warranty period: 1 year

If any of the above issues occur within the warranty period, we will provide free repair or replacement, depending on the situation.
Using an anti-bite steel leader is mandatory only in waters where sharp-toothed predators are present, such as:

• Barracuda
• Sharks
• Spanish mackerel
• Snakehead

In other fishing scenarios, you may directly connect Smart Bait using mono or braid.
This often helps reduce fish alertness and increase strike rates.

If you choose to use your own steel leader, we recommend the following minimum specifications:

• Smart Bait Air / Mini: ≥ 30 kg (approx. 0.8 mm)
• Smart Bait Pro / Pro X: ≥ 50 kg (approx. 1.2 mm)

Important note:
The leader connected to Smart Bait is primarily designed to prevent bite-offs — it is not intended to bear the full fighting load of large fish.
