About this piece
The Issei Kaitaro Neko Metal is a carefully engineered metal jig designed to maintain a natural, hook-filled posture during the fall—the moment when most bites occur in metal jig fishing. Extensive prototyping has resulted in a lure that not only excels on the drop but also responds reliably to one-pitch jerks, lift-and-fall, and high-speed retrieves without compromising action.
Key features
- Fall-focused design optimized for maximum bite induction during descent
- Reversible body shape allows anglers to change action characteristics on the fly
- Proven performance across multiple retrieve speeds and techniques
- Generous 460 g weight for deep-water jigging and strong current conditions
Best for
- Offshore jigging targeting bottomfish and pelagic species
- Deep-water scenarios where a controlled, enticing fall triggers strikes
- Anglers who need a versatile jig that adapts to varying sea conditions
