A bare metal lead sinks hard and gives the rig rhythm but offers a squid nothing soft to hold; a light cloth sutte looks and feels right but will not reach depth in current. This one is a weighted sinker dressed in a textured cloth body, so it goes down like a lead jig and, once it is there, behaves like an egi — something a squid wraps its arms around and keeps hold of instead of testing once and letting go. Balanced internal weight keeps it descending steadily in a horizontal posture, the cloth carries 3D eyes and flexible skirt strands that keep moving on the pause, and UV-reactive and luminous elements hold visibility in deep or dark water. Double-layer stainless crown hooks give two rows of contact points. Four weights, seven colours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeighted body with a textured cloth wrap — the sink rate of a lead jig with the feel of a sutte\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBalanced internal weight for a stable descent and a horizontal posture on the drop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDouble-layer stainless-steel crown hooks — two rows of sharp contact points\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUV-reactive and luminous details for low light and depth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3D eyes and flexible skirt strands that keep working during the pause\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHydrodynamic profile designed to reduce tumbling in current\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFour weights: 95 g, 115 g, 150 g and 173 g, in seven colours\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow To Fish It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChoosing the weight\u003c\/strong\u003e — Three things decide it together: water depth, current speed, and how fast the boat is drifting. Forty metres on a slack tide is a different problem from forty metres with the boat pushed along by wind. Start at 95 g for shallow ground or slack water, 115–150 g for a working tide at moderate depth, and 173 g for deep marks, running current or a fast drift. The test is your line angle: if it streams away and you lose the bottom, go heavier; if the jig hits bottom fast and stays dead, go lighter and let the fall do more work.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWork the fall, then the pause\u003c\/strong\u003e — Drop to the bottom, wind up three to five turns with short sharp lifts, then stop dead and hold for five to ten seconds. Because the cloth body falls slower and flatter than bare metal, the fall itself is fishing — give it time. Squid attach on the pause, almost never on the lift.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSearch in bands\u003c\/strong\u003e — Squid stack at a depth rather than spreading through the column. Work upward in stages of a few turns until one takes, then repeat that band on every drop.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNever strike, never stop winding\u003c\/strong\u003e — A take feels like added weight, or a tip that stops springing back. Lean the rod over slowly to load it, then wind at one constant speed to the boat. Crown hooks have no barbs, so any slack lets the squid pull free.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCharge the glow\u003c\/strong\u003e — Hold luminous patterns under the deck light
