About this piece
The Smith CB. Muramasa 3S TS (Tonjigi Special) is a heavy jig designed for deep-water jigging targeting tuna (albacore / longfin tuna). It inherits the 3S concept (Spiral, Slide, Long Stay) from the standard CB. Muramasa 3S while eliminating all drag-inducing elements like domed eyes and gill carvings to minimize water resistance and angler fatigue.
Key features
- 3S concept: spiral entry, horizontal slide, and prolonged horizontal stay
- Asymmetrical, single-sided full-flat body for stable sideways glide
- Round line eye reduces input loss compared to oval shapes
- 400g weight and 242mm length for deep-water and current applications
- Hookless design (hookless specification)
Best for
- Deep-water jigging for tuna (albacore / longfin tuna)
- Electric jigging where reel load reduction is beneficial
- Slow, low-activity periods requiring a long horizontal presentation
- Current-heavy or structure-oriented deep-water scenarios
