Information

The swimming action

The Santis 40 is a 76 mm, 40 g sinking blade jig spoon built to cast further and work deeper water than the Santis 33, with an ima Original Blade II adding extra flash and vibration to the spoon's own roll.

When to throw it

It's aimed primarily at flathead around river mouths and surf beaches, with ima noting it also performs on a range of other species.

How to work it

Fish it low and slow to trace a flatfish's feeding zone; the redesigned blade keeps the retrieve feeling light despite the extra weight.

The setup it likes

Pair with an M–MH 9–10 ft rod, a 4000 reel, 12–16 lb (PE 1.2–1.5) braid and a 20 lb fluorocarbon leader.
