About this piece
The Daiwa TG Bait Tachi-U 180g is a tungsten jig designed for the popular Tokyo Bay cutlassfish (tachi-u) jigging style. Its ultra-dense tungsten body, 1.7 times heavier than lead, allows a compact profile that falls fast and cuts through layered currents to reach the bottom quickly.
Key features
- Tungsten body (1.7x density of lead) for fast fall speed and compact size
- Asymmetric body shape for swimming action on retrieve and horizontal slide on the fall
- Mimics the wobbling motion of a distressed baitfish
Best for
- Targeted at cutlassfish (tachi-u) jigging in Tokyo Bay and similar waters
- Effective in strong currents or double-layer tidal conditions
- Suitable for deep-water vertical jigging where fast bottom contact is needed
