Black Magic SUNAKKU Jig Snapper Jig
Weight: 130g
Key features
- Designed for maximum visibility in medium to deep water
- The Sunakku® (“soo-nar-koo”) slow jig is the culmination of extensive in-house design and development, and on-water testing
- All the large custom designed heads have strong luminous properties and are coated with a crackle paint finish with large iridescent reflective foil eyes
- The shape of the head in conjunction with the skirt creates an effective “wiggle” to the lure when drifting
- As the sliding head allows the head to move up your leader, it greatly reduces the amount of leverage the fish can get making it more difficult to “throw” the hook
- A long life Japanese soft ‘high glow’ lumo bead placed between the head and the skirt for enhanced visibility
- The skirts are free flowing providing an enticing swimming action having combination of luminous and UV content
- The hooks are manufactured from high carbon steel, in one of Black Magic’s Japanese factories and are PTFE coated for increased rust resistance and an extended hook life
- Rigged with Kevlar® thread on a solid ring
- Available in five colour options
- The four head weights (60g, 80g, 100g and 130g) allow you to choose one that suits the depth you’re in or the speed of your drift
Fishing style
- If you haven’t fished this type of product before, it’s generally most effective when you’re drifting, and in deeper water (20 to 100m). Cast up ahead of the drift, allow the jig to hit the bottom and slowly wind/retrieve the lure, giving it the odd “yo-yo” as it comes in
- When you’re about 1/3 of the way up, free spool the lure back to the bottom and repeat until the lure is past the boat at about 30 to 45 degrees
- When you feel bites, just continue to wind slowly as the fish will more than likely strike at it several times if it doesn’t hook up immediately. You can also add small slivers of bait, like a thin piece of squid tentacle, if you want to
- For best results use Sunakku® with at least 1 metre of Black Magic 20 to 40lb Tough Fluorocarbon leader coupled with Black Magic 16 to 30lb Rainbow Braid Elite 8x
- You can also use a Black Magic UV Torch to charge up the lumo finish on your Sunakku® lure which in turn enhances their visibility in water
“The heads in particular have strong lumo qualities within in their ‘crackle-paint’, which is topped off with large iridescent and reflective eyes. These along with a lumo bead between the head and free flowing skirts, add to their attraction at depth.” – Grant Dixon, New Zealand Fishing News
