▲TopLUCANUS JIG SYSTEM

The Lucanus Jig System from Shimano is an exciting new approach to catching fish. Fish are literally hooking themselves - using a technique that can be very slow in method but very hot on action.

With a large glowing eye and alienating appearance, the Lucanus Jig has been deadly on many bottom and mid-water species, West Australian Dhufish, Yellowtail Kingfish to even thumper Snapper to name a few. The range features a variety of six spectacular colours and finishes in 60, 80, 100, 150 & 200g weights.

Easy and convenient to replace silicon jig skirts and trailers will be available as well as replacement hooks featuring quality Owner hardware.

To compliment the new range of Jigs, Shimano produced a reel ideal for fishing the Lucanus Jig to the max, introducing the all-new Calcutta TE 400LJV (Lucanus Jig Version) – featuring 5.0:1 High Efficiency Gearing, 7 super smooth anti-rust bearings and an adjustable oversized handle shank.

The reel also features Shimano’s variable brake system and Quickfire II clutch bar casting system.

Of course, the system would not be complete without a rod that has been perfectly crafted with all elements of the Lucanus Jig system in mind – the all new Lucanus Jig rods, featuring a 6’5” length travel butt configuration and rated for PE2 – PE3 lines. Suits Lucanus jigs from 60 – 200g.

A spin model featuring the same specifications is also available for your favourite threadline reels.
