About this piece
The Major Craft Maki Jig Slow is a compact blade-equipped jig designed for slow-retrieve presentations. It targets finicky fish feeding on micro bait by relying on blade flash and micro-vibrations rather than aggressive jerking actions. Ideal for shore jigging and super light jigging, it excites fish like mackerel, Spanish mackerel, rockfish, and snapper.

- Vertical line tie stabilizes cast and promotes horizontal fall
