Description

The Anchovy Metal TYPE-I is Jackall's speed-oriented offshore metal jig, built for tachiuo (cutlassfish) jigging but suited to any rapid-fall casting or jigging application. A tail-weighted, rear centre-of-gravity body keeps the amplitude tight and gives the jig a fast, controlled fall so you can hit a target depth quickly, with the fall speed itself useful for triggering reaction bites. At 250g this is the heaviest size in the TYPE-I range, for deep water and strong current where extra weight is needed to hold bottom contact.

A one-pitch short jerk retrieve lets it work a wide layer of the water column at a good tempo, and each jig carries a large weight-marker sticker on the eye so you can tell sizes apart at a glance when rotating through a set. This 250g comes in seven colourways for varying light and water clarity conditions.

Information

The swimming action

A tail-weighted metal jig with a rear centre of gravity that keeps the fall low-amplitude and fast, punching straight down to the target depth rather than swinging out on the drop.

When to throw it

Built for tachiuo (largehead hairtail) jigging in open water, and works across the whole depth range the Anchovy Metal series covers by swapping weights to match current and depth.

How to work it

Fish it on a one-pitch short jerk retrieve to cover a wide band of the water column at a steady tempo, or lean on the fast, straight fall alone for reaction bites when fish are chasing falling bait.

The setup it likes

Suits a boat jigging rod matched to the jig weight, a compact spinning or overhead reel loaded with PE1.5-3 braid, and a fluorocarbon leader of roughly 20-40 lb depending on jig weight and target size.
