I am looking for some Japanese made squid jigs for my dad. He swears by these. I've been looking everywhere for these. Has anyone seen these? (see attached) I realize this is a bad picture, but also note there is a fishing boat on the package. Thanks!

Thanks- hopefully my dad will still have some when I visit for Christmas and I can take a pic with a regular camera. (btw how does one go about ordering off of some of these sites? I know some have English versions, but these don't appear to!)
hi jill, those sites listed above are just the manufacturer's websites.
you need to go to a retailer to buy the jigs. lots of retailers would sell yamashita (yamaria) and yo-zuri (duel) jigs. though the ones i have highlighted are not perhaps as common as the prawn jigs which many people prefer to use.

Hi Jill,
We have some of these currently in production, similar anyways. Five Colors Pink, Green, Chartreuse, Glow, and White. All with 3D eyes, and super luminous tubing on the top hook. The size of these is 2 3/4" or 7cm. All the clear ones feature a large bubble in the middle of the jig. Should be available by the end of April.
