Intech Tungsten 74 Flex Cheburashka Heads Steel Gold

When developing the Intech Tungsten Jig heads, the task was simple: to make the best of the existing Cheburashka sinkers. Despite the great similarity of sinkers from different manufacturers, the Intech sinkers have a lot of differences in the shape, coating, rigidity and configuration of wire reinforcement and of course the density of tungsten itself. In the Intech sinkers, all these are optimized, taking into account many years of experience in the operation of tungsten, hundreds of fishing trips, dozens of sports spinning tournaments.

The shape of the Cheburashka Flex Head is a perfect ball. Only such tungsten has the best aerodynamics, as it flies farther and with more accuracy than a sinker of the same mass, but flattened on the sides.

Equipped with high quality, tungsten stainless wire, the shape of the groove in the sinker’s body is perfectly worked out. It is easy to fasten the eyelet of the hook into the bracket; it enters the sphere without additional compression, easily and clearly.

Intech Tungsten jig heads are available in a wide range of weight sizes: from microscopic heads with a mass of 0.7, 1, 1.2 grams - the most popular and demanded in Finesse fishing styles - and to mass weights of 26, 28 and even 30 grams, which allow setting new range records when casted.

Any type of eyed hook can be used with the Cheburashka rig, which means that as long as you have a suitable hook available, any shape or size of lure can be rigged to the same head. When you want to change hooks, simply pull out the clip, slide on your chosen hook, push the wire back.

The Cheburashka rigging consists of a particular sinker, an offset hook and a soft silicone bait like Tube, Worm, or Shad. The sinker is in the shape of a sphere and has a snap, which opens up, but then locks again inside the sinker, after passing through the eyelet the Offset hook ring.

This rigging is widely used in freshwater fishing throughout Central Europe and the USA, targeting the Largemouth Bass, Perch, Pikes. This way of rigging soft baits however, is gradually gaining ground in the Mediterranean, mainly when fishing the Mediterranean Sea bass in shallow waters, during the Spring and Summer season, where the fish have specific eating habits.

The Cheburashka rigging gives our silicone bait a very free and natural movement and as a result it reproduces the natural movement of an injured baitfish that Sea Bass is feeding on, during the summer period.

It is very easy to set up and use the Cheburashka rig, as all we have to do is choose the right silicone lure, rig it on the Offset hook, then pass the Offset hook’s eye through the stainless steel snap and secure it again inside the Intech Flex Head. The rigging is ready to go.
