About this piece
The Breaden Metalmaru is a spin-tail jig engineered for extreme casting distance and light game applications such as round horse mackerel and mackerel. Its precisely balanced body, developed over three years with multiple prototype refinements, delivers exceptional aerodynamics. The single-hook model reduces snagging while retaining the blade-bite advantage from the Colorado blade paired with the rear hook.
