About this piece
Targeting squid, this specialized jig (sutte) features a cylindrical body with a small surface area to sink quickly to the desired depth. Its design minimizes resistance during jigging, allowing for straight lifts and easy manipulation even in deep water, while maintaining a horizontal posture on the fall to entice bites.
Key features
- Small surface area cylindrical body for quick sinking and less resistance.
- Horizontal fall posture and easy stationary hold to encourage squid to grab.
- Shaking action produces a left-right sway (shaking dance) to attract squid.
- Small single hook is unobtrusive, and leader connection thread is extended to reduce suspicion.
- Head has a hole to insert a chemical light stick (e.g. Lumica Chimoto Hotaru) for added attraction.
Best for
- Squid fishing (especially from boats).
- Deep water jigging techniques.
- Anglers wanting a natural, low-resistance presentation to finicky squid.
