Jackall Gekidakisutte Metal NO.40 Red Head Blue Glow Lure

Jackall Gekidakisutte Metal NO.40 Red Head Blue Glow Lure

A specialized metal Egi designed for serious squid and calamari hunters. The Gekidakisutte NO.40 combines aggressive darting action with a hypnotic flutter fall that mimics wounded baitfish—the trigger squid can't resist. The red head with blue glow body creates maximum contrast in murky water and low-light conditions, while the luminous finish extends your productive fishing window into dawn and dusk periods when squid are most active.

Egi Techniques for Squid:

• Shaku-Shaku (Jerk-Pause): Sharp upward jerks of 30–50cm followed by controlled slack-line falls. Squid attack during the descent—watch for line tension or sideways movement
• Stay Fall: After the initial jerk sequence, let the Egi sink on a tight line for 3–5 seconds. This extended pause triggers cautious squid
• Bottom Contact: Tap bottom, then immediately lift 1–2 meters. The silt cloud and erratic rise imitates fleeing prey
• Current Drift: In tidal flow, use minimal input—let the Egi work naturally with periodic lifts to maintain depth control

Rigging Notes: The NO.40 size excels in 3–15 meter depths. Pair with PE 0.6–0.8 mainline and 2–3lb fluorocarbon leader for optimal sink rate and sensitivity. The balanced weight distribution ensures consistent horizontal posture on the fall—critical for squid that approach from below. Glow charge before each cast in low-light conditions for maximum attraction.
