About this piece
Daiwa's Samurai Jig R is a redesigned metal jig for shore jigging, built to deliver greater casting distance, larger fish capability, and reduced tangling. The renewed body balance and slimmed belly improve flight stability and cut through wind, while a thinner head shape enhances water-shedding and action response.
Key features
- Redesigned weight balance shifts center slightly rearward for longer casts and stable flight in head/crosswinds
- Thinner head profile improves water-shedding and allows seamless transition from reactive to finesse action
- Front assist hook is short Tinsel assist with Sakusasu fluorine coating for high penetration and reduced line tangles
- Rear thick-wire treble hook withstands heavy fish and stays sharp for reliable hooksets
- Wide color lineup with Silver Hologram, Gold Hologram, and Glow patterns for varying water clarity and light conditions
Best for
- Shore jigging in pressured, competitive pier and surf zones
- Targeting pelagic predators such as yellowtail amberjack, Spanish mackerel, and bluefish
