About this piece
The Smith CB. Nagamasa is a 345mm, 400g metal jig designed for slow-pitch or long-slide presentations in offshore waters. Its long flat body and center-balanced construction create a wide, horizontal slide on the fall, enticing predators like greater amberjack (ヒラマサ) and yellowtail (ブリ). The laser-edge back design cuts water cleanly during upward jerks, producing a sharp darting action.
Key features
- Long flat-sided body with center-balanced weight distribution for horizontal sliding.
- Laser-edge back enhances water-cutting and darting action on the jerk.
- Best fished with slow retrieves and deliberate line slack to prolong the glide.
- Rated at 400g (345mm total length) for deep-water casting and jigging.
Best for
- Offshore slow-pitch jigging targeting amberjack, yellowtail, and tuna.
