About this piece
The Smith CB. Muramasa 3S·TS is a 350g long jig designed for tuna (albacore) jigging, inheriting the 3S concept (Spiral Slide Long Stay) from the original Muramasa. It eliminates gimmicks like bulging eyes and facial carvings to reduce angler fatigue from resistance during the retrieve, while the line eye has been changed from oval to round to minimize input loss. The jig spirals and slides laterally on the initial action after a jerk, staying horizontal for prolonged appeal in a short zone, making it ideal for vertical jigging targeting albacore and other pelagics.
Key features
- 232mm body length, 350g weight for deep-water jigging
- 3S concept: spiral slide long stay for horizontal fall and lateral action
- Redesigned round line eye reduces input loss
- Minimal resistance design suitable for electric reel jigging
- Color: 16 Glow Hamon (glow-in-the-dark pattern)
Best for
- Offshore jigging targeting albacore (tombou), yellowtail, and other pelagic species
- Electric reel jigging due to low resistance profile
- Deep water and strong current conditions
