I have to pump the brakes when Daiwa states "the nude body design allows the lure to glide more easily than a traditional cloth covered jig. It darts, sinks and slides effortlessly at the slightest twitch of the rod tip".
The difference in drag between a conventional cloth covered jig and a nude jig as they move through the water wouldn't be noticeable to the fisherman when inacting their chosen style, at best it would result in decreasing the sink rate.
That being said I think these jigs look fantastic, they seem to be copying gancraft slightly, and it doesn't surprise me that they were effective at night considering cephalopods have advanced vision.
