About this piece
The RUDIE'S 魚子メタル (Nanako Metal) is an ultra-small metal jig originally developed for catching horse mackerel (aji). Its extremely thin, asymmetrical flat body sinks dramatically slower than other jigs of the same weight, allowing anglers to reach overlooked spots with up to 1.5 times the casting distance of a comparable jighead.
