Quick take
A 45g vertical jig head with flat sides and holographic red-orange finish for saltwater jigging.
This 45 g replacement head from Major Craft belongs to its Tairaba line of jig heads. It comes in red and orange #8 with a flat holographic side that catches light as it moves. At about 1.6 oz, it suits anglers who want a spare head in that size.
Best for
- Offshore vertical jigging over deep bottom structure
- Situations where a fluttering, rotating jig head triggers bites
- Anglers with compatible jigging setups looking for replacement heads
Skip if
- You jig shallow water or need a streamlined body shape
- You want a jig head with an eye lure attachment point
Strengths
- Flat sides catch water and create rotating, fluttering action on the fall
- Holographic finish creates flash and visibility in deep, dark water
- 45g weight reaches bottom quickly in strong current
Trade-offs
- Specialized design suits only vertical jigging and offshore use
- Flat sides increase water resistance, tiring the angler on repetitive lifting
- Replacement-head design requires compatible tackle components
