About this piece
The Smith CB. Muramasa 3S TS (Tonjigi Special) is a 500g metal jig engineered for long-distance jigging targeting albacore tuna. It inherits the 3S concept (Spiral Slide Long Stay) from the standard Muramasa 3S while eliminating drag-inducing features like dome eyes and gill carvings to reduce angler fatigue.
Key features
- 3S concept: spiral action, horizontal slide, and extended horizontal stay
- Asymmetric center-balanced flat side body for spiral and slide on the fall
- Round line eye reduces input loss compared to oval shapes
- Hookless design (フックレス仕様) for custom rigging
- 500g weight and 264mm length for deep-water jigging
Best for
- Deep-water jigging for albacore tuna (tonbo/bincho maguro)
- Electric jigging applications due to reduced drag
- Low-activity fish when slow horizontal presentation is needed
