Salas 7X Heavy Yo-Yo Iron Jigs

Deep-Water Power for Trophy Yellowtail and Tuna

The Salas 7X Heavy Yo-Yo Iron Jigs combine the legendary fish-catching shape of the classic 7X with the extra weight needed for deep-water yo-yo fishing. Hand-crafted in Southern California, this specialized heavy iron is purpose-built for dropping deep and working the yo-yo retrieve that West Coast anglers rely on for trophy yellowtail, deep-feeding tuna, and other pelagics holding in deeper water.

Heavy-Duty Deep-Water Design

• Hand-Crafted in USA: Each jig is individually made in Southern California with meticulous quality control
• Heavy Weight Profile (8.1 oz): Extra weight gets down to deep-feeding fish quickly and maintains proper action in current
• Proven 7X Shape: Legendary fish-catching profile that has produced for decades
• 6 3/8" Body Length: Ideal size for matching larger baitfish and triggering strikes from trophy pelagics
• Durable Chrome Finish: Classic chrome plating provides maximum flash and withstands deep-water punishment
• Premium Treble Hook: Heavy-duty hook handles aggressive strikes from deep-water predators

Deep-Water Yo-Yo Technique

The 7X Heavy excels with the classic deep-water 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 heavy weight gets down fast, cuts through current, and maintains proper action even in deep water. The proven 7X shape creates the darting, flashing action that triggers strikes from yellowtail, tuna, and other pelagics holding deep. Works best with 30-40 lb monofilament as your main line or top shot for optimal action and durability.

Built for Deep Yellows and Tuna

Whether you're targeting deep-water yellowtail on offshore banks and high spots, working yo-yo iron for tuna holding in deeper water, fishing deep structure and seamounts, pursuing trophy pelagics in areas with strong current, or dropping deep when fish won't come up, the 7X Heavy delivers the performance serious West Coast anglers demand. The extra weight is essential when fish are holding deep and lighter irons won't get down fast enough or maintain proper action in current.

West Coast Deep-Water Tradition

The 7X shape has been a West Coast legend for over 50 years, and the Heavy version brings this proven profile to deep-water applications. From party boats to private vessels, from San Diego to Baja, the 7X Heavy has earned its reputation as a go-to choice when yellowtail and tuna are holding deep. The combination of proven shape and heavy weight makes this iron essential for serious yo-yo fishing in deeper water.
