What Our Customers Say:

  • 5 Star Review  Recently purchased an imp jig in cotton candy to add to the ever increasing jig collection. The finish on the... read more jig certainly looks good, and at a good price point. I can't wait for a break in the weather to get out and give it a good test, I'm expecting in this colour to be good for the bass, Pollock and dare I say a cod when they're about. Will certainly be looking to buy more from Matt in the future.

Get down nice and quick but also have great movement .

After fishing them with someone who is proficient at SPJ @ Chino Fabro, I saw first hand how effective they can be, even in difficult conditions!

    This was a last minute purchase as was holding off as I didn't think I could improve my spj setup and my only regret was not pulling the trigger sooner! Great rod 😁
