About this piece
The Daiwa TG Bait Tachi Uio 80g is a high-density tungsten jig designed specifically for cutlassfish (tachi uio) jigging. Its compact body, achieved through the use of tungsten (1.7 times the density of lead), enables faster fall speeds and easier bottom contact even in challenging two-layer current conditions. The asymmetric body promotes a swimming action on the retrieve and a horizontal slide on the fall, mimicking a wounded baitfish.
Key features
- Tungsten construction provides 1.7x the density of lead for a compact, fast-sinking body.
- Asymmetric body design creates swimming action on the retrieve and horizontal slide on the fall.
- PH Double Orange color is a popular choice for cutlassfish anglers in Tokyo Bay.
- Weighs 80 grams (2.8 oz), ideal for deep-water jigging.
- Designed to excel in two-layer current situations where lead jigs struggle.
Best for
- Cutlassfish (tachi uio) jigging in bays and coastal waters.
- Deep-water jigging where fast fall rates and bottom contact are critical.
- Anglers targeting amberjack or other pelagics in current-affected areas.
