Katsuichi describe it as a basic small jig head with minimal quirks and a well-balanced centre of gravity, so the round head reduces unwanted spiralling and the lure answers the rod faithfully rather than adding a character of its own. That is what a round head is for: the least water resistance of any shape, so it casts far for its weight, sinks fastest per gram, and can be dragged, hopped or swum from any angle without planing off line. The \"Magic\" is the Magic Keeper, the barbed worm lock used across Decoy's Magic series — it stops a soft plastic sliding under repeated darting while keeping a thin worm's silhouette intact instead of bulking it up, which matters on a 0.9 g head.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRound head — low resistance, fast sink per gram, no unwanted spiralling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConcentrated centre of gravity for predictable action\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMagic Keeper barbed worm lock that holds without spoiling a slim silhouette\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eW Nickel finish; five heads per pack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFactory range spans #8 to #3, from 0.9 g to 7 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeveloped around kasago (scorpionfish) and mebaru\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow To Rig It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRound versus shaped heads\u003c\/strong\u003e — Pick the SV-52 when you want the plastic to do the talking.
