Jigs for Yellowfin Tuna

<< < (2/2)

Mark Lewis:
The week after I took that photo of the jig, I flew off to Puerto Vallarta (mainland Mexico) in search of outsized YFT.  While the paint certainly falls off the Shimano jigs quickly, they actually seem to work better once they are a bit messed up!  It's almost to the point where I feel like roughing up the jigs before using them now.  I leave day after tomorrow for Mexico again and have only brand new jigs (that one sadly got caught on the bottom on my last trip).  If the new jigs don't do well in the first hour, I'm taking a file to the paint on them  ;D ;D
