Tady 45 Surface Iron

Compact Power for Finesse Surface Presentations

The Tady 45 Surface Iron delivers a smaller, lighter profile for finesse surface presentations and situations where fish are feeding on smaller baitfish. Hand-crafted in the USA with meticulous attention to detail, this compact surface iron provides the perfect combination of size and action for matching anchovies, small sardines, and other diminutive baitfish that pelagics often target. The 45's lighter weight and smaller profile make it ideal for calm conditions and picky fish.

Classic Surface Iron Technique

The Tady 45 excels with the time-tested surface iron retrieve. Cast the iron to feeding fish or working birds, let it sink briefly, then retrieve with a rhythmic rod-pumping action that creates an erratic swimming motion. The lighter weight and smaller profile create a more subtle presentation that's ideal when fish are feeding on smaller baitfish or when they're being selective. The compact size also makes it easier to cast on lighter tackle and work with finesse techniques.

Built for Finesse Situations

Whether you're targeting yellowtail feeding on small anchovies, working for bonito and skipjack in calm conditions, pursuing calico bass with lighter tackle, casting to picky tuna that won't hit larger irons, or fishing any situation where a smaller profile triggers more strikes, the Tady 45 delivers consistent results. The compact size is especially effective in calm water when fish can see larger jigs more clearly and become selective about what they'll strike.
