About this piece
The Issei Umitaro Neko Metal 2g is a precision-crafted metal jig designed to deliver an irresistible underwater posture that triggers strikes. Developed through extensive prototyping, it excels at maintaining a natural fall attitude—the moment when most metal jig bites occur—while also responding flawlessly to varied retrieves like one-pitch jerking, lift-and-fall, and high-speed winding.

- Equipped with a long, glow-in-the-dark central-axis hook to enhance bite induction.
- Thoroughly researched fall posture maximizes hook-up potential during the descent.

Best for
- Shore and inshore saltwater jigging from boats or structures.
