Quick take
A 5 inch heavy metal vibration lure rigged with three hooks that appeals to large saltwater predators during shore jigging.
The Jackall Big Backer Metal Vibe is a 5.0-inch metal vibration lure that weighs 1.6 oz (44 g) and sinks, in Super Sago Silver. Its three-hook setup suits high hooking, and the weight makes it a fit for casting and jigging from shore for sea bass and flounder. It is an option for anglers who want a heavier, sinking metal profile with a big body for saltwater jigging.

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.
