Quick take
A compact vertical jig with flash finish for deep saltwater jigging on structure and reefs.
The Daiwa TG Bait SLJ in 80 g is a tungsten jig about 3.07 inches long, shaped to resemble a small baitfish. It is set up with a twin assist hook and tinsel for super light jigging, aimed at species such as tai and isaki. The Adel flash green gold glow head adds a hologram finish, and the jig weighs 2.8 oz.

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.
