Quick take

Japanese-style taiyara trolling weight and jig for offshore sea bream and similar bottom-dwelling species.

This is a Japanese-market tai rubber (tai-raba) sinker from Abu Garcia, a 40 gram head in a green and gold finish. It carries a Gamakatsu needle-point hook and is built from high carbon steel and stainless steel. It suits anglers rigging bottom-dragging tai-raba setups for panfish-sized targets.
