About this piece
The CB Nagamasa 200g is a metal jig designed for slow-pitch and long-slide presentations, built by Smith to excel in deep-water conditions. Its unique knife-edge back profile cuts water efficiently, reducing pull resistance while providing darting and sliding action.
Key features
- 200g weight for reaching deep water columns efficiently
- Laser-edge back design minimizes water drag and pull resistance
- Encourages long-slide fluttering action during free-fall phases
- Slow retrieve with deliberate slack creates uncontrolled sliding on the fall
- Knife-edge back slices water during upward jerks for sharp darting
Best for
- Slow-pitch jigging for amberjack (Hiramasa) and similar pelagics
- Deep-water drifting where controlled free-fall triggers hesitant biters
- Techniques relying on long horizontal slides on slack line
