About this piece
The Daiwa Samurai Jig R Slow Fall is a metal jig designed to imitate a wounded baitfish slowly sinking to the bottom, triggering strikes from surface fish like yellowtail and bottom fish such as rockfish. Its semi-long, asymmetrical body shape with one flat, slightly concave side improves water grip during the fall, creating a subtle trembling action that mimics a distressed baitfish.
