Quick take
A 1.6-ounce tungsten metal jig compact enough for casting in tough saltwater conditions.
This Daiwa TG Bait is a compact casting jig built from tungsten, which packs a lot of weight into a small 2.5 inch body. At 1.6 oz it suits anglers who need to reach baitfish-feeding fish at distance or get down quickly. The PH Bull Pin finish and needle point hook round out a slim profile for imitating small forage.

About this type
A lure is an artificial bait that draws a strike with its shape, color and movement.
Each kind is built for certain depths and ways of fishing.
Weight decides how far a lure casts and what rod and line it needs; color changes how visible it is in the water.
