Description

The Leech 1.8g (リーチ 1.8g, LC-21〜 LC-26) is a VANFOOK feather jig for area trout whose selling point, per the maker's copy, is a weight that's easy to cast even for beginners and children, loading the rod properly regardless of tackle. Simple to use — just reel slowly and steadily. The strong appeal of natural abalone shell combined with the feather's natural, enticing action is said to make trout unable to resist. Straight retrieves work, but so does repeatedly letting it sink and winding it back up; if a fish feels off, the advice is not to set hard but to reel a little faster, hooking up securely around the mouth.

Weight: 1.8g. Offered in 6 colours: LC-21BL White, LC-22BL Olive Pink, LC-23BL Orange, LC-24BL Olive Yellow, LC-25BL Black Olive, LC-26BL Olive Brown.

What makes it different

Built to fish, not just to sell

The swimming action

The feather's natural, enticing action pairs with a flash of natural abalone shell for extra pull, delivered on a slow, steady retrieve. The heavier 1.8g head still swims with the same subtle, unhurried action rather than turning aggressive.

When to throw it

An easy-casting area-trout jig, heavy enough to load the rod properly even on beginner or children's tackle. Useful once trout have grown wary of faster spoons and hardbaits, and for reaching a little further across an area pond or lake.

How to work it

Reel slowly and steadily, or let it sink and wind it back up on repeat to draw fish holding deeper. If a fish feels off on the take, avoid setting hard — reel a little faster instead to hook up securely around the mouth.

The setup it likes

Pair with a light-to-light area-trout rod, a 1500–2500 size spinning reel, 2–4 lb main line and a 2–3 lb fluorocarbon leader, tackle capable of casting an easy 1.8g weight for beginners and experienced anglers alike.
