MajorCraft - JigPara Micro
About this lure
MajorCraft JigPara Micro jigs are compact, high-appeal metals designed for finesse fishing in estuaries, harbours and freshwater systems. Built to sink horizontally with subtle, minimal side-to-side movement, they present naturally to wary or finicky fish. Available from 3β15g and pre-rigged with either front-only or front-and-rear hooks, these micro jigs excel when small baitfish are on the menu and predators are feeding selectively.

How to fish the MajorCraft - JigPara Micro
Big Kev's Tips
How to work it
Cast the JigPara Micro and allow it to sink on a controlled drop through the 2-10 m zone, working the lure with a slow, subtle retrieve.
Use a light hop-and-pause cadence or steady slow-wind to trigger bites - the horizontal sink and minimal side-to-side action suit pressured or finicky fish in estuaries, harbours and freshwater. Pair with light spinning gear and 4-8 lb braid or monofilament to feel the delicate fall and maintain contact through the strike zone.
When targeting selective feeders, let the lure flutter naturally on the drop rather than working it hard. A flutter-and-hold retrieve often outperforms aggressive jigging in clear or shallow water.
The micro profile excels when small baitfish are present - match the lure size and colour to local forage, and work it slowly through structure, drop-offs and current seams where wary fish hold.
