About this piece
The Daiwa Emeraldas Ikametal Dropper Type E (Egi Type) is a specialized metal jig designed for deep-water squid fishing (ika metal). It combines the horizontal darting action of an egi (squid jig) with a metal body to target squid that ignore standard metal jigs. The lure features a stable forward-leaning posture for better balance and attack angle, and a slow-sinking, non-rattle design for finesse presentations.

- Sharp darting action even at depths over 50 meters
- Slow-sinking, non-rattle design for finicky squid
