About this piece
The Breaden Metalmaru is a high-performance metal jig designed for long-distance casting and light- to mid-range gamefish. Its body shape balances aerodynamics with a convincing baitfish profile, and the rear Colorado blade paired with a double hook improves hook-up ratios compared to traditional spin-tail jigs.
