About this piece
The Daiwa Samurai Jig R is a redesigned metal jig for shore jigging, offering improved casting distance and reduced line tangling. Its optimized weight balance shifts the center of gravity slightly rearward for stable flight, even in headwinds or crosswinds. The front features a Tinsel Assist Hook with a fluorine-coated Saksas hook for smooth penetration, while the rear uses a heavy-duty treble hook to handle large fish.
