Top – The tiny Meiho SS Slit Form Case filled with a selection of equally tiny metal jigs from Xesta, Jackall, Reins and BlueBlue.
Metal Jigs
Using Metal Jigs is one of the most active and exciting lure fishing methods in the LRF arsenal. Metal Jigs are available in a wide array of shapes, sizes and colours and can be fitted with small treble hooks, singles, or assists. They are normally cast out or jigged vertically in deep water. Sink-and-draw is a successful technique and fish will often attack metal lures on-the-drop.
Huge LRF Bass
A great LRF capture. Probably my biggest LRF Bass to date. This 61cm (fork) fish weighing approximately 6lb fell to a tiny 12g HTO Shore Jig in Scad colour.
Corkwing Wrasse on Metal Jig
A nice Corkwing Wrasse tempted into attacking a 3g metal jig in a nice bit of tidal flow. The metal is a Jackall Mame.
Goldsinny on Metal
Nice tick today. Goldsinny wrasse on metal. Jackall Mame jig getting it done.
Squid on Jackall Mame Jig
A nice bonus on the Jackall Mame metal jig in the shape of this colourful squid.
Herring on Metal Jig
The first highlight from my road-trip to the West Country. My first LRF Herring in the UK. Albeit a small one!
Barry Docks LRF
Change of scenery. Thought we’d head West instead of South for a change. After a bit of internet research I decided upon Barry Docks in Wales.
Small Whiting to Metals
A bizarre little session fishing tiny metal jigs over sand. The catch was predominately Whiting ranging between 8 and 14cm. 20 of them in fact.
