About this lure

The Evergreen Cham Jig is a compact metal jig designed by light game specialists to combine the long-casting and fast-sinking advantages of metal jigs with a subtle, highly effective action for cautious fish. Its simple centre-gravity body delivers a natural presentation that excels when targeting light coastal species in clear or pressured conditions.

  • Compact centre-gravity body – concentrates weight for excellent casting distance and quick sink
  • Small form profile – perfectly matched to light targets feeding on tiny baitfish
  • Modest dart action – short, controlled darts imitate a fleeing micro baitfish
  • Quiet, controlled fall – reduced flapping encourages confident bites from timid fish
  • Simple jerk & fall use – easy to fish with basic lifts and drops from shore or boat
  • Light game specialist – ideal for aji / jack mackerel, koheru and snapper in NZ waters

How to fish the Evergreen - Cham Jig

Big Kev's Tips

How to work it

Cast the Cham Jig on light gear and let its centre-gravity body sink quickly through the mid column, targeting the 2-10m zone.

Its compact profile casts a long way and gets down fast, so count it down to the depth where fish are holding before you begin working it.

Fish it with a simple jerk-and-fall: short controlled lifts of the rod tip produce a modest dart that mimics a fleeing micro baitfish, then let it drop on a quiet, controlled fall.

Most bites come on the fall, so stay in contact and watch the line. This subtle action suits cautious or pressured fish that shy away from more aggressive lures.

Pair it with a light rod, fine braid and a fluorocarbon leader for the best presentation and bite detection, from shore or boat.

It's well matched to aji, kahawai and trout feeding on tiny baitfish in clear water.
