Description
The Horizon Head is a bass jighead built around what Gamakatsu calls a "Perfect Round Head" for consistent action on every retrieve, paired with a "Double Cone Keeper" that spreads the weight and improves how well it holds a soft plastic. The surface is treated with Gamakatsu's "Nano Alpha" coating, which adds corrosion resistance on top of a sharp point. It's offered across hook sizes #4 through 3/0 and weights from 0.5g to 3.5g, giving a wide range of hook/weight combinations for different worm patterns.
By concentrating weight in the keeper area, the head is designed to stay level during both the swim and the fall, keeping the hook point riding true and triggering strikes from predatory bass.

FAQ
How does PE rating convert to pounds?
Only approximately. A common rule of thumb is PE size × 10 ≈ breaking strain in pounds, but it varies by brand and braid construction — check the maker's own lb or kg rating on the listing.
Are hook and jig head sizes the same across brands?
No — sizes aren't standardised between Japanese makers. Size to the lure you're rigging and check the brand's own size chart; the measurements on the listing are the honest reference.
The colour looks slightly different from my last spool — is that normal?
Yes. Dye batches on braid and finishes on painted heads vary between production runs. It's cosmetic and doesn't change the spec.
How does small tackle ship?
Packed in Japan and sent with tracked international shipping, same as everything else. Small items still get a tracking number; delivery time varies by destination.
Why buy JDM line specifically?
Japanese line makers in the JAFTMA industry group publish tight diameter and strength tolerances, and member brands are measured against them. Check each listing's spec — that's a per-brand claim, not a blanket promise.
