Description

Jackall JETTROW TAKO BUDDY is the second feeding lure in the Jettrow-exclusive "Buddy" line, designed to be clearly differentiated from the original JETTROW BUDDY by appeal style and to widen the range of micro-bait-pattern approaches. It uses a hybrid build: a soft tako-bait/tinsel body for a soft, alluring wobble, paired with a plug-material head that stabilises the swim. The no-sinker body gives it a distinctively strong, floaty buoyancy for a fluffy, natural presentation.

Its low-pressure, straight "I-shape" swimming action gives it even higher feeding power than the original Buddy's aggressive spin, making it effective when fish refuse the original lure in tough bite conditions. A "chirashi-bari" scattered assist-hook setup is fitted to hook up on the short bites typical of low-activity fish, and a wire-cored assist line handles sharp-toothed fish like sagoshi (young Spanish mackerel) and tachiuo (cutlassfish). Price is ¥759 (tax included). Shown here in the official SHIRASU, AKAKIN, CHART GOLD, BLUE PIN, PINK BACK, TROPICAL GLOW, NAMA SHIRASU and SPARK ORANGE colourways.

Information

The swimming action

A soft tako-bait/tinsel body gives a soft, alluring wobble while a plug-material head stabilises the swim, and the no-sinker build gives a distinctively floaty, fluffy presentation with a low-pressure, straight swimming action.

When to throw it

Suited to tough bite conditions when fish have refused the original Jettrow Buddy, aimed at aomono and sharp-toothed species such as sagoshi and tachiuo during a micro-bait pattern close to the boat or shore.

How to work it

Snap it onto a compatible Jettrow jig and fish the jig's normal retrieve; the scattered chirashi-bari assist-hook setup and wire-cored assist line are built to hook up on short bites from low-activity fish.

The setup it likes

A medium-heavy to heavy offshore jigging rod, a 4000-8000 size reel, PE2-4 braid and a wire or heavy fluorocarbon leader suit the Jettrow jig this lure is fitted to and the toothy fish it targets.
