Field report from Mr. Oda(Lake Biwa fishing guide).
Bellows Stick has a longer body.
As its body is ringed, largemouth bass can easily get it into their mouth which gives you a good chance of setting the hook.
I think fishing with no sinker style rig will be effective during the coming season.Cast it near weeds and let it fall.
Hook # 5 is preferred.
