Description

The ima GUN Kichi 7g is a metal jig from ima's (GUN Three Brothers) series — the versatile all-rounder of the three, built to work equally well as a vertical jig or a casting lure.

On the fall it uses a random slide action to work vertical jigging games, while its stable casting distance also makes it effective for casting at blue-fish and flatfish. The maker calls it an all-round jig suited to a wide range of situations.

Length: 45mm (including eye). Weight: 7g. Hook: Ise-uni #7. Main target: mebaru, a Japanese rockfish species. Recommended areas: harbours, tidal flats, river mouths, rivers, surf and rocky shore.

This listing stocks the following official colourways: Iwashi, Pink, Akakin, Guripin Gold, Tamasai, Border Blue Glow, Border Glow Rainbow Border Glow Rainbow, and Pink Glow Candy Pink Glow Candy.

Information

The swimming action

On the drop the GUN吉 uses a random slide action, kicking sideways as it falls rather than dropping straight down, a movement built to draw reaction bites from mebaru and small pelagic fish holding off structure or bait schools.

When to throw it

Suited to harbours, tidal flats, river mouths, surf and rocky shore where mebaru and blue-fish species sit tight to structure or bait. Its stable casting flight also makes it useful when fish are feeding just out of vertical jig range.

How to work it

Work it as a vertical jig with short lift-and-drop strokes to trigger the slide on the fall, or cast and retrieve with a straight or twitch retrieve when fish are up in the water column. Most bites come on the drop, so pause and watch the line.

The setup it likes

Suits a light spinning rod rated to around 10g, a 1000–2000 size reel, PE 0.4–0.6 line and a 4–6lb fluorocarbon leader for mebaru and light rock game.
