About this piece
The Daiwa Emeraldas Amorous Joint is a vertical-joint squid jig that produces a uniquely seductive dolphin action. At 3.5号 size and 22.5 g weight, it is designed to trigger strikes from finicky squid that have ignored standard jigs. The jig features a dual eye-position system for varying the action: use the nose eye for vertical fluttering or the head eye for a sliding motion. A built-in slit accepts the Kamen Sinker Boat 2 (7–40 g) for tip-run (slow-pitch) fishing, and the joint smoothly follows a squid's movement on the hook set to reduce drop-offs.
