Precision-Engineered for High-Current Conditions

The Shimano Current Sniper Jigs are purpose-built to excel in challenging high-current environments where traditional jigs struggle to maintain bottom contact and proper action. Featuring Shimano's innovative streamlined design and optimized weight distribution, these specialized vertical jigs cut through current with minimal resistance while delivering the erratic action needed to trigger strikes from deep-dwelling predators in fast-moving water.

Hydrodynamic Design for Current Control

• Streamlined Profile: Aerodynamic body shape cuts through current with minimal resistance, allowing you to maintain bottom contact with less weight
• Optimized Weight Distribution: Precisely balanced for stable descent and controlled action even in strong current
• Compact Design: Reduced surface area minimizes current drag while maintaining fish-attracting profile
• Fast-Sinking Action: Gets to the strike zone quickly and stays there in challenging conditions

Premium Construction and Finish

• Durable Coating: High-quality finish withstands repeated strikes and contact with structure
• Holographic Patterns: Realistic baitfish colors and flash patterns trigger predatory instincts
• Heavy-Duty Assist Hooks: Premium hooks positioned for optimal hookup ratio on aggressive strikes
• Corrosion-Resistant Hardware: Saltwater-tough components handle harsh offshore environments
• Multiple Size Options: Range of weights to match current conditions and target depth

Built for High-Current Environments

Whether you're fishing deep-water wrecks with ripping current, working offshore structure in tidal flow, targeting rockfish on current-swept reefs, pursuing snapper and grouper on deep ledges with strong bottom current, or jigging for amberjack and yellowtail where current makes fishing difficult, the Current Sniper delivers the performance you need. The streamlined design lets you use lighter jigs than traditional designs, reducing fatigue while maintaining bottom contact and proper action.

Versatile Jigging Techniques

The Current Sniper excels with both speed jigging and slow-pitch techniques in current. For speed jigging, the streamlined profile allows rapid vertical movement with minimal current resistance. For slow-pitch applications, the optimized weight distribution creates an enticing flutter and fall even when current is pushing the jig. The compact design also makes this jig effective for drift fishing over structure, where maintaining bottom contact in current is critical for success.

Why Current-Fishing Specialists Choose Current Sniper

Professional captains and serious vertical jigging enthusiasts choose the Current Sniper because it solves the fundamental challenge of fishing in current: maintaining bottom contact and proper jig action when water is moving fast. The hydrodynamic design cuts through current efficiently, letting you fish lighter weights that are easier to work all day while still reaching and staying in the strike zone. The premium construction ensures reliable performance trip after trip, even in the most demanding offshore conditions.

Experience the difference that specialized design makes when fishing in current. The Shimano Current Sniper isn't just a vertical jig—it's a precision tool engineered to help you succeed when current makes fishing challenging.

Conquer high-current conditions with Shimano Current Sniper Jigs—where hydrodynamic design meets deadly effectiveness.

Deps Sakamata Shad is a soft bait with the darting and jumping action. The keels on both sides of the body give it a natural baitfish action while appealing to the predatory instincts of bass. The darting and jumping action of Deps Sakamata Shad makes it irresistible to bass. With natural-looking keels on both sides of the body, this soft bait has a baitfish-like movement that is sure to entice those predatory instincts.

It can be fished weightless to imitate baitfish trying to escape near the surface and jumping out of the water. It can also be fished on the bottom with a split-shot or Carolina-Rigs and the bait will dart near the bottom like a fish looking to hide.

The performance and versatility of the Sakamata Shad makes it easy to catch fish in a variety of situations.  This fluke style bait is like the regular flukes but on a whole other level.

The Deps Sakamata Shad design of the body is smooth and creates low water resistance making it easy for the bait to dart side-to-side. It can be fished quickly to generate reaction bites.

The salt content varies based on the size of the bait (8inch = 5%, 6inch / 5inch = 10%, 4inch = 5%) and the material has strength and holds hooks securely, which reduces tearing and breaking.

The Keel is the secret for the unique jumping dirt action of Sakamata Shad. It allows the water to flow and creates a unique jumping action. It also acts as a rudder to create better darting action.

The Submission Fishing Jigs Sumo is so versatile that when it's tied on the eye side, the heavy belly of the jig will slide through the water column allowing you to fish underneath docks, pilings, and other hard to reach places.  When tied from the belly side, it will have a more traditional vertical fall. With a wobbling, leaf-like action, the squat, round-belly shape of this jig falls into the depths of the ocean to entice saltwater bay bass as well as many others. The Sumo's compact design also allows you to use a heavier jig in a smaller presentation for precision fishing. Perfect for fishing shallow docks or 60 ft of kelp beds (the 40 and 60g are perfect for kelp) with a heavy tide swing. 

Submission Jigs The Sumo comes in 20g, 40g, and 60g.

All jigs feature BKK assist hooks with UV tassels and heavy duty split rings.

Submission Fishing Jigs Mercenary is effective in many conditions.  Whether you're casting out on a boat for pelagic, vertical fishing for bass off the docks, or casting from shore, the Slow Death Mercenary jig can be very productive. This jig's unique shape produces a fluttering, twirling action on the fall and an erratic swimming action on the retrieve. It can be fished vertically or cast and retrieved. It’s the ultimate dying baitfish imitator, and greedy fish won’t be able to resist.

Submission Jigs Mercenary comes in 20g, 40g, and 60g.

All jigs feature BKK assist hooks with UV tassels and heavy duty split rings.

Jig was renamed to Mercenary in March of 2024.

The Tungsten Advantage for Serious Offshore Jigging

When SoCal bluefin are finicky and deep, the JF Jigging Tungsten Steel Jigs give you the edge. Crafted from premium tungsten — 1.74x denser than lead — these 300g jigs sink faster, cut through current with less drag, and present a compact baitfish profile that triggers strikes from even the most selective predators. Whether you're vertical jigging in 300 feet of water or casting into a feeding frenzy, the JF Tungsten delivers where lead jigs fall short.

Best For

• SoCal bluefin tuna vertical jigging in deep water
• Yellowfin tuna and yellowtail on the drop
• Grouper, snapper, and deep-water bottom species
• Offshore casting into surface feeding frenzies
• Slow pitch jigging for pelagic and bottom species
• Any situation requiring a fast-sinking, compact profile jig

Why Tungsten Outperforms Lead

• 1.74x Denser Than Lead: Same weight in a dramatically smaller, more compact profile that mimics small baitfish
• Faster Sink Rate: Reaches depth quickly, minimizing time in the water column and maximizing fishing time
• Reduced Line Drag: Compact profile cuts through strong currents for precise control and better bottom contact
• Enhanced Vibration: High-density construction transmits high-pitch vibrations for instant strike detection
• Hookless Design: Customize with your preferred assist hooks for maximum versatility across conditions

Key Specifications

• Weight: 300g
• Material: Premium tungsten (1.74x denser than lead)
• Finish: Durable unpainted with UV color options
• Hooks: Not included — hookless for custom assist hook setups
• Target Species: Bluefin tuna, yellowfin tuna, yellowtail, grouper, snapper, and other pelagics

Tackle Express Tips:

• Attach the JF Jigging Assist Hooks in 5/0 to the tie point of the jig.  Use a split ring and solid ring configuration increase hookup rate and less line failures.
• Use metered braided line so you know the depth you're fishing.  Listen closely to how deep the captain says the fish are and match that depth with the metered 100ft per color line. 
• If you're dropping the jig in open water and it stops, you're bit so start turn the handle until the rod loads up.  Whatever you do, don't swing the rod you'll pull the lure out of the fishes mouth.

Available Colors

Note: Does not come with hooks. Customize with your preferred assist hook setup.

Sink faster, fish deeper, catch more — JF Jigging Tungsten Steel Jigs, built for serious offshore anglers.

A stickbait lives or dies on whether an average angler can make it walk. The Espetit is built so it does — the taper and balance do most of the work, so you get a clean side-to-side glide without the wrist rhythm a lot of walking baits demand.

Short version: floating topwater stickbait in five sizes from 70mm to 140mm. Walk-the-dog and sliding action, twin cavities that pull bubbles down with the bait, and an internal rattle — with a silent version if the rattle is working against you.

What Makes It Different

• Dual cavities — the bait drags air down as it darts, leaving a bubble trail alongside the surface disturbance. Two signals instead of one.
• Internal rattle tuned to a specific frequency, adding sound to the visual and the bubbles.
• Floats at rest — the pause holds it in the strike zone instead of dropping out of it, and the pause is where most stickbait fish commit.
• Aerodynamic profile for distance, which matters when fish are boiling out of reach or you're covering a flat from the beach.
• Five sizes spanning bass-sized finesse to full pelagic profiles.

Rattle or Silent?

The White N Flash (Silent) is not a color variation — it's a rattle-free version of the bait, currently offered in 95mm.

Reach for the silent when fish are heavily pressured, the water is very clear and calm, or the rattling version has been getting follows and refusals. Sound is an attractant right up until it isn't, and on flat mornings a quiet bait sometimes gets eaten by the same fish that just refused a loud one. Take the rattle version everywhere else — chop, wind, stained water, and any time you need to call fish from a distance.

Which Size

We're confirming the 110mm's published weight and hook size with Fishus and will fill those in once verified — we'd rather show a blank than a guess. Call the shop and we'll weigh the one in the case.

Freshwater and Saltwater

The Espetit came out of the European seabass scene, which is why it casts and behaves the way it does — wind, chop, and long distances were the design brief.

Freshwater: 70mm and 95mm for largemouth and smallmouth, particularly on clear pressured lakes where a walking bait needs to be smaller than the standard.

Saltwater: the 125mm and 140mm are legitimate surface options for calico bass over structure, and for bonito and barracuda when they're feeding on top. The distance is the argument — boiling fish are usually further away than you'd like.

Topwater windows on the local lakes move week to week. We publish Castaic Lake fishing reports with current conditions — worth checking before you decide it's a surface day.

Picking a Color

Colors offered vary by size. The selector above is the live list.

Recommended Gear

• Rod: moderate action with a forgiving tip. Stiff rods rip trebles out of fish on surface strikes — the single most common way anglers lose topwater fish.
• Line: braid to a fluorocarbon or mono leader. Braid gives you the direct connection to work the walk; the leader gives you abrasion resistance and a little stretch.
• Avoid heavy fluorocarbon straight through — it sinks and pulls the nose down, fighting the bait's float.

Pro Tips from the Tackle Express Crew

• Slack line makes it walk. Twitch into slack, not into tension. A tight line pulls the bait straight and kills the side-to-side.
• Use the pause. It floats for a reason. Let it sit after a blow-up and miss — fish routinely come back for a bait that's sitting still.
• Wait to feel weight before you set. Setting on the splash pulls it out of the fish's mouth.
• Try the silent version on flat mornings. Same bait, one fewer signal. Sometimes that's the difference.

Common Mistakes

• Working it on a tight line. The bait needs slack to turn.
• Too stiff a rod. Costs you fish on every strike.
• Setting on sight. Wait for the weight.
• Undersizing for saltwater. A 95mm on calicos over structure will get bit — the #6 trebles are the limiting factor, not the bait.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between White N Flash and White N Flash (Silent)?
The silent version has no internal rattle. Same body, same action, one fewer signal — for pressured fish and flat, clear conditions. Currently offered in 95mm.

Which size should I start with?
95mm for freshwater bass and general use. 125mm if you're fishing saltwater surface for calicos, bonito, or barracuda.

Does it float?
Yes. It holds position on the pause instead of sinking out, which is where a lot of the bites come from.

How do I make it walk?
Twitch the rod tip into slack line, not into tension. The bait needs slack to turn — pulling tight drives it straight.

Can I use it in saltwater?
Yes — the Espetit was developed for European seabass. Rinse the hardware after every trip like any other saltwater lure.

What rod and line?
Moderate action with a forgiving tip, braid to a fluorocarbon or mono leader. Avoid heavy fluorocarbon straight through; it sinks and fights the bait's float.

Why are some sizes offered in fewer colors?
Fishus doesn't produce every colorway in every size. The selector shows what's actually available.

The DaHo Reverse Latch Threading Needle was developed in collaboration with Jerry Brown, a pioneer in hollow spectra fishing line technology. Unlike traditional latch needles adapted from fabric knitting machines — which must be pushed into hollow spectra and often damage the line's fibers when the latch opens — the DaHo Reverse Latch Needle is designed to be pulled through the line, keeping the latch closed by the line's internal pressure. This is the only tool on the market that uses the latch mechanism as it was originally designed to function.

The reverse latch design also allows the latch to open and release the held line when needed — a critical capability for loop creation and splicing techniques where a line must be released by the tool while threaded through another line. Standard loop splicing needles cannot do this. Attached to DaHo's standard 6" needle body, the Reverse Latch Needle also allows longer loops and splices than the old short latch needles permitted.

Key Features

• Pull-through latch design — latch stays closed under line pressure, protecting hollow spectra fibers
• Releasable latch — opens to release held line mid-splice when needed
• 6" needle body — enables longer loops and splices than traditional latch needles
• Latch is always the trailing end — correct orientation for pull-through use
• 3 sizes available — Small, Medium, and Large covering 60# to 300# spectra
• Sold individually

The DW-1 Yo-Yo excels with the classic yo-yo retrieve. Drop the iron down to the desired depth or all the way to the bottom, then retrieve with a quick, steady winding pace that creates an erratic swimming motion. The hybrid design gets down efficiently, maintains proper action across varying depths, and adapts to different current conditions. The balanced weight creates the darting, flashing action that triggers reaction strikes from yellowtail, calico bass, white seabass, and other deep-holding gamefish.

Built for Versatile Deep-Water Success

Whether you're targeting yellowtail on offshore banks and high spots, working for calico bass around kelp and rocks, fishing for white seabass on deep reefs, pursuing rockfish and lingcod on vertical structure, or yo-yo fishing across multiple depths in a single trip, the DW-1 delivers consistent results. The hybrid design makes it an excellent choice for anglers who want one reliable yo-yo iron that handles both moderate and deep-water fishing effectively.

The Z-Man Finesse TRD (The Real Deal) is a 2.75-inch stickbait designed specifically for the Ned Rig, a finesse technique famous for catching bass in tough or highly pressured conditions. It is widely considered a staple for smallmouth, largemouth, and spotted bass.

Key Features

• 10X Tough ElaZtech: This proprietary material is virtually indestructible, often lasting for dozens of catches per bait.

• Buoyancy: Unlike traditional plastics that sink flat, the TRD is naturally buoyant, causing it to stand vertically off the bottom when at rest to mimic a feeding crawfish or minnow.

• Salt-Impregnated: The soft formulation and salt content provide a precise sink rate and an irresistible feel that encourages fish to hold on longer.

• Dimpled Texture: A realistic, dimpled surface adds to its natural look and feel.

Duran's DFP Mega Clamp for Casting Reels is more than 200% wider than stock clamps and the most secure clamp on the market! It works with low profile and conventional reels that have mounting holes in the reel from the manufacturer.  It will give your fishing reel added security so it doesn't move and is necessary for deck hand rods.

A deckhand rod is a rod that does not come with a reel seat.  The benefit to a deck hand rod is to have the ability to mount the reel in the ideal location depending on your preferences.  

This clamp is designed to be used with stock hardware and protect your expensive blanks from being crushed. Deep serrations on the inside and rounded edges on the outside equal a comfortable grip and maximum holding power for those long battles.

This clamp is CNC Machined out of aircraft grade 6061 aluminum and anodized to prevent corrosion. Custom laser cut stainless steel inserts and washers are provided so it will work for a wide variety of reels. Another cool add on feature is an adjustable trigger that can be taken on or off depending on your fishing style. 

• Trigger Sold Separately
• Ideal for deckhand rods
• Will not work with spinning reels or rods
• Wider surface area to displace pressure to prevent blank damage.
• The millimeters(mm) listed is in relation to the diameter of the rod.  Measure where the reel goes, wether it is on the rod itself or the reel seat, and that will tell you what clamp you need.
