What area are you from lunker-hunter209? I've only heard a couple of select stores have them right now and maybe I can tell you which store is closest to you.

There are 5 colors being sold right now. MS Anchovy and Metallic Sardine will be the popular ones. I think the other 3 colors are Pearl White, Mahi Candy, and TRG.

There are also 3 weights: 50g, 60g, and 80g. All 3 are 95mm each. I believe Longfin in Seal Beach should be currently selling them starting today. You can give them a call to make sure. I'll update more if I hear more tackle shops are selling them.

I can't wait to try them and got some JDM colors to test.

Hey. I found some but all the 80g are sold out so I had no choice to get the 50g. How do we use this jig?

Hi lunker, you can fish them the same as a megabait. Here is a link I found on how japanese fishermen fish them:

Bobabocker, what I've been told, they are 4x VMC treble hooks. You do not have to re-rig them since the jigs already come with the treble hook. The JDM versions come without a hook because japanese fishermen like to tie their own variance to the pencil jig.

They should have a fluttery action on the fall when jigging up and down. Similar action to a megabait is what I've been told. I'll be trying them out this weekend hopefully and will let you guys know how it is.

The question is what do they cost? I would like to try them but can they out fish a mega bait? I would imagine they are around 20$ When a megabait is 6$ and catches a ton of fish

Retail price should be around $10. I have not tested them yet but will soon.

For 10$ I will probably pick up a few. Lucky crafts always makes quality stuff so I have good hopes for them
