An ambitious two-and-a-half-year project has culminated in the Daiwa Bait Junkie Heavy Wire Jig Heads. These jig heads bring a new level of performance to the often-overlooked category of jig heads. Daiwa Australia’s product development team, long-time Daiwa angler Kris Hickson, and Australian lure-making expert Dan Stead collaborated to create this innovative product. Together, they have created a jig head that offers unique features designed to enhance the angler's experience.
Quality Hook Construction
At the core of the Bait Junkie Jig Heads is the high-quality BKK hook. Moreover, this hook is paired with Daiwa’s SaqSas hook coating. This super-slippery, Teflon-like coating increases the penetrating power of the hook point, ensuring a superior hook-up ratio. Anglers can choose between a 2X strong BKK heavy wire hook and a 0X BKK light wire hook, depending on their fishing needs. With nearly 100 different shapes and sizes available, these jig heads can perfectly match your chosen lure and the depth of water you are fishing in.
Innovative Bait Keeper Design
One of the standout features of the Bait Junkie Jig Heads is the unique bait keeper. The team refined the design over 18 months and more than 25 prototypes. The team did this aiming to create a jig head bait keeper that works exceptionally well with Daiwa’s stretchy ELASTOMAX material from their Bait Junkie soft plastics. As a result, this innovative bait keeper prevents the common problem of anglers pulling plastics down over the keeper and bunching them up into a twisted mess. Hence, this design provides a cleaner and more effective fishing experience.
Cylinder-Shaped Head Design
The head design of the Bait Junkie Jig Head is primarily cylindrical with a flat back for optimal clean rigging and a flattened 'chin'. When used with Daiwa’s buoyant ELASTOMAX material, this design promotes a ‘tail up’ posture when the bait rests on the bottom. This feature is especially effective even in hard-bottom situations where traditional bullet-shaped heads fail to perform.
Convenient Packaging
The convenience and thoughtfulness extend to the packaging of the Bait Junkie Jig Heads. They come in a resealable zip-lock bag, perfect for keeping jig heads free from moisture in tackle boxes. Hence, they are prevented from rusting before use. The packaging also includes a removable sticker indicating weight and size. Furthermore, this sticker can be re-attached to a tackle box or storage tray for easy identification when organizing your gear.
In conclusion, the Daiwa Bait Junkie Heavy Wire Jig Heads represent a significant advancement in jig head design. This advanced design offers superior hook-up ratios, innovative bait keepers, and thoughtful packaging solutions. This product is a must-have for any serious angler looking to enhance their fishing experience with high-quality, reliable gear.
