Palms Miniature GIG Lure

The Miniature Gig is for Light Rock Fishing. It is the most technical lure member of the “Bit Arts” family and it has been created by Japanese leading manufacturer Palms. It is a sinking Pencil that offers many options to Light Fishing game.

It is only 48mm long and 6.5 gr heavy. This lure possesses awesome skills when it comes to casting. It has been designed to reach where only a few lures in its category can reach and it retains its balance even in difficult conditions in the water. When you fish with the Miniature Gig, you will feel as if you casted a small jig.

Its front part remains still during a steady retrieve. The Miniature Gig makes a very wide wobbling motion with minimum rolling. You can enrich the simple retrieve with irregular vertical strikes (Twitches). In that way we can live it up, achieve a dynamic presentation and make it look even more interesting in the eyes of predators, like a wounded baitfish.

During our tests the Palms Miniature Gig made it really easy for us, because of its long casts, even against the wind. It enabled us to reach long distances and cover wide areas. It responded really well in strikes and it allured big White Seabreams who love a dynamic and a full of twitches approach. It also tempted Basses with steady retrieve, but also other prey that lurk near the bottom, when we let it descent between pauses.

One could argue that the Miniature Gig, is by far the most technical lure in the Palms “Bit Arts” family and combines features from the Degree and the Lipless Degree lures. It is suitable for those Light Rock Fishing anglers, who want to expand their in-depth knowledge of the LRF technique and they want to practice it with fantasy and great focus. It offers plenty of technical options in fishing, a feature that is hard to come by in one lure only. Palms has exceeded itself with the making of the Miniature Gig and as it has been established worldwide as a leader in the field of Ultra Light fishing, with the Miniature Gig it demonstrates how it reached that level of expertise.

Weight Balance

Weight positioned with emphasis on flight distance, in a compact body of 48 mm. Not only is it packed up to the limit, but also in consideration of the balance during retrieve, Palms has placed the center of gravity low, close to the bottom of the front part of the body.

Real scale

Rather than the traditional simple scale pattern of the cloth, a realistic pattern reminiscent of a baitfish has been developed. The reflection of light is not uniform, but irregular and the reflections appeal to the target.
