Daiwa Semi Long Jig

.Built for offshore jigging applications where fast sink rate and enticing flutter action are the critical triggers, the Daiwa Semi Long Jig features a center-weighted body that drops quickly through the water column while maintaining a natural, erratic fluttering motion on the fall — the action profile that triggers reaction strikes from tuna, yellowtail, amberjack, grouper, and snapper holding at depth. The semi-long profile bridges the gap between short speed jigs and full-length slow pitch jigs, delivering versatility for both slow pitch and high-speed jigging techniques across a wide range of depths and current conditions. Available in 5 weights from 80g to 200g.

Key Features

• Center-Weighted Body — Weight concentrated at the center of the jig for a fast, direct sink rate combined with a natural fluttering action on the fall; center balance produces an erratic, side-to-side flutter that mimics a dying or injured baitfish at depth.
• Semi-Long Profile — Profile length bridges the gap between short speed jigs and full-length slow pitch jigs; versatile for both slow pitch and high-speed jigging techniques across a wide range of depths and current conditions.
• VMC 7264 Assist Hooks — 2 heavy-duty VMC 7264 assist-hook-style hooks included; multiple rigging options for front, rear, or dual hook configurations depending on target species and technique.
• Durable Coating — Finish withstands repeated strikes and prolonged exposure to harsh saltwater conditions; maintains color and flash integrity over extended use.
• Slow Pitch & High-Speed Versatility — Center balance and semi-long profile effective for slow pitch jigging (flutter on the fall, pause-and-drop cadence) and high-speed jigging (fast retrieve with erratic action); one jig that covers multiple offshore jigging techniques.
• Big Game Targeting — Weight range (80–200g) and hook sizing (3/0–9/0) scaled for tuna, yellowtail, amberjack, grouper, and snapper in offshore and deep-water applications.

Product Specifications

Color Guide

• Holo Silver — High-flash holographic silver finish; maximum flash and reflection in clear water; effective for tuna and yellowtail in offshore conditions where flash is the primary trigger.
• Gunmetal — Dark, low-flash gunmetal finish; effective in bright conditions when fish are pressured by high-flash patterns; natural baitfish profile in darker color tones.
• Sand Eel — Natural sand eel imitation; slim, translucent profile effective for species that key on eel-shaped forage; good all-around color for mixed offshore species.
• Glow Dot Blue — Blue base with glow dot accents; glow finish provides visibility in low-light conditions and deeper water where ambient light is reduced; effective for night fishing and deep jigging applications.
• Full Zebra Orange — High-contrast zebra stripe pattern with orange accents; aggressive attractor color effective for tuna and amberjack in offshore conditions; high visibility in stained water.
• Zebra Shadow Pink — Zebra stripe pattern with pink shadow tones; effective attractor pattern for yellowtail and pelagic species; pink tones produce flash and visibility in clear offshore water.

Weight Selection Guide

• 80g (2.8 oz) — Lighter weight for shallower water (60–150 ft), moderate current, and situations where a slower fall rate and more pronounced flutter action is desired. Best for yellowtail and calico bass in mid-depth applications. 3/0 hook.
• 100g (3.5 oz) — Mid-range weight for moderate depth (100–200 ft) and current; balance of sink rate and flutter action for yellowtail and tuna in moderate offshore conditions. 5/0 hook.
• 130g (4.6 oz) — Heavier weight for deeper water (150–300 ft) and stronger current; faster sink rate for getting the jig to depth quickly in offshore conditions. 5/0 hook.
• 160g (5.7 oz) — Heavy weight for deep offshore applications (200–400 ft) and strong current; best for amberjack, grouper, and large tuna in deep-water jigging scenarios. 7/0 hook.
• 200g (6.3 oz) — Maximum weight for deepest applications and strongest current; best for offshore big game species in deep water where maximum sink rate is required to reach the target depth. 9/0 hook.

Best For

• Yellowtail — Center-weighted flutter action is one of the most effective triggers for yellowtail on the drop; semi-long profile and 80–130g weights cover the depth range where yellowtail are most commonly targeted.
• Tuna & Pelagic Species — Heavier weights (130–200g) and high-flash colors (Holo Silver, Full Zebra Orange) for tuna and pelagic species in offshore conditions requiring fast sink rates and aggressive attractor patterns.
• Amberjack & Grouper — 160–200g weights with 7/0–9/0 hooks for amberjack and grouper in deep-water structure jigging; durable coating and heavy-duty VMC hooks handle the sustained pressure of large bottom species.
• Slow Pitch Jigging — Center balance and semi-long profile produce the flutter-and-pause action that is the foundation of slow pitch jigging technique; effective for species that key on a dying baitfish presentation.
• High-Speed Jigging — Profile and weight distribution maintain action at high retrieve speeds for high-speed jigging applications targeting tuna and pelagic species in offshore conditions.
