About this piece
The Daiwa Saltiga Jive Chopper is a short-type metal jig designed for bait jigging, developed under the supervision of Kazunari Shimizu. Its slightly rear-biased balance enables a quick switchback action when transitioning from fall to jerk, triggering the target's feeding instinct. Constructed from lead with a weight of 250g and a length of 170mm, this jig is built for offshore gamefish.
