About this piece
The Buddy Works Henchman (ヘンチマン) is a 42g jig designed as a "winding jig" with an asymmetrical shape that swims with a fine pitch. Developed by Takuhisa Meguro, creator of the explosively popular color "Melomelo Melon," this release features the new "Sakura Glow" color scheme. Its rear-weighted design ensures exceptional casting distance while the compact, rounded body manages water flow to prevent tail thrashing and maintain a comfortable retrieve resistance.
