About this piece
The Yamashita Egi King LIVE BASIC 3.5 is a sinking squid jig designed for efficient action and reduced forward movement. It builds on the wide darting action of the previous LIVE model while suppressing forward travel by 33%, allowing the jig to stay in the strike zone longer and present itself more effectively to following squid. When cast 50 meters, the Egi King Q LIVE achieves 150 actions and the Egi King LIVE achieves 200 actions per cast, offering 50 more actions per cast than its predecessor.
