Been to a few trips in malaysia for light jigging and i find that if you don't let your jig go down right to the bottom you are just wasteing your time. But letting it down you had a very high chance of snagging it onto rocks or coral.

Even in local shore i snagged a lot of jigs liao lol

Hmmm this are some past catches i had in our local shore on cheap jigs

OK

When we arrive and start to set up our rods, heard this guy in red beside us complaining about the catch rates and fishes in the pond are not bitting, he was also wondering did the management release enuff fish not lol. From the way he talk i guess today was his first time to the pond too, 4 hours of fishing in the pond NOTHING! he told us the whole morning fishes landed up by others not more than 10 pcs, best of all fish only bite on 1 side of the pond.

OMG lol in my heart i was thinking siao liao lor not yet even start fishing only heard this kinda thing already how to fish sia.... After awhile the red shirt guy and his friend decided to go FW1 lol they totally give up the place liao.

2 hours later... i finally felt that the red shirt guys did the right choice lol today the pond bite rate was very low and even if they are bitting only the regular gets them.

reason why?

Becos... the regular know where the fish are hiding.... lol

Every pond are the same fishes tend to hide/ hang around net area and regular will conquer the best spot in the pond,

Jarrett can't stand it anymore
fish only bite 1 side
so he went over and squeeze with the others hahaha, that is something i don't like but what to do....lol you will get line crossed here and there lol i hate that sia...

Hmmm it look almost the same as the AURIE-Q series but Sniper Egi has additional hooks on the back, which higher the chance of hooking up a squid when it tried to grap the jig. Oh ya lol also higher the chance of hooking up more weeds if there is any.

I also own the AURIE-Q the same colour and i had quite a number of squid on it already

So i hope this Sniper Egi works well too kekeke

Yo-zuri Oita Painted 3.0
This is not the cloth wrapped tpye Oita all the colouring is done inside the transparent body and it also added pcs of reflector on the belly. Hmmm so far have not seen anyone used this, but heard from Mr KJ san that non clothed jigs hookup rate are lower.

Well just give this one a try bah...
