The DJ-100 Grand Pike is the heavy end of that family: a single-type assist rig built not on the standard Pike AS-03 but on the Pike Type-R, the power version of the same shape. The Type-R keeps the AS-03 geometry that made the pattern a standard in light jigging — fast penetration, wide gape, holding power — but raises the wire diameter, adds a reinforced flat-pressed bend, and uses a calculated up-eye angle so the assist line pulls the point into the fish. The result is one single assist that holds up across the whole range of jigging styles, from hard fast jerks to slow pitch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe assist line is specified by size. Sizes #1 to #3\/0, aimed at inshore jigging, use a braided assist line. From #4\/0 up — deep water, big fish, and the situations where holding the jig itself becomes the problem — Katsuichi switch to a four-strand braid with added stiffness. Every size runs a GP ring. Tin finish with Aqua Block treatment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAgainst the rest of the Pike range: the \u003cstrong\u003eDJ-88 Twin Pike\u003c\/strong\u003e is the light twin for general light jigging, the \u003cstrong\u003eDJ-79 Long Pike\u003c\/strong\u003e is the long single for long jigs and slow work, and the \u003cstrong\u003eDJ-89 Tachi Pike\u003c\/strong\u003e puts Pike hooks on stainless wire for cutlassfish.
