About this piece
The Daiwa Gleam Jig Semilong is a high-response asymmetrical metal jig wrapped in aluminum for a distinctive backslipping action. Its thin head reduces resistance, while the side edges are designed for efficient water flow, creating a sharp sliding action. The slightly front-heavy balance allows a slow rolling backslipping fall that covers long distances, and the aluminum body produces a natural light reflection that triggers bites from reluctant fish.
