About this piece
The Daiwa Samurai Jig R Slow Fall is a metal jig designed to imitate a wounded baitfish sinking to the bottom, a common target for pelagic and bottom fish. Its semi-long, asymmetrical body with a slightly curved flat face ensures excellent water grip during the fall, creating a subtle trembling action that mimics a weakened baitfish. The center of gravity is slightly forward, promoting a smooth transition to a horizontal posture for extended hang time.
