About this piece
The Issei Neko Metal Long is a metal jig designed for jigging, featuring a long, slender body and a weight balance shifted slightly toward the center for versatile action. It is engineered to maintain an effective fall posture that triggers bites, and responds well to various retrieves including one-pitch jerks, lift-and-fall, and high-speed winding.
