Seperateknob ( duo)
Submitted by little johnny on Fri, 2022-04-01 20:01
Very good in deep water . Every second they sink a foot . No cloth they last long time . Never use light line ( while learning to use them) . Also excellent in strong winds . I always use white jigs .( light day or dark day) . If if fish shallow is use exile 2.5 white jigs . My jig box very boring colour wise . Duos good for 16 feet to 50 feet . Love them . I use 30 lb j/braid with 25 pound shock leader . ( fg knot). Everyone has there favourites . Duo 100 percent mine

Yep a convert for the white Duo.
Have way too many jigs, but the White duo is first out of the bag

There hard
To master . But once shown or figure out hard to beat . I would love them to make a 45 weight . Be unreal . Since Daiwa took over they fixed barb issue and glue that holds them in . I’ve caught many different fish on them also . Lizards love them and big pike.

Also cloth jigs
Regardless of brand ( your personal favourite) use painters tape over barbs and feathers . Spray them with clear ( non yellowing clear gloss enamel) 2 to 3 light coats over new jig . Turns them into hard body jig . Doesn’t effect catch rate . Makes them last a long time . Nothing worse than 1 or 2 trips . Your jigs ripped the crap out off . From there bites . Food for thought jigs not cheap .

That they do . 100 percent have to work them in light winds . Get to squid in deeper than normal depths.
