Ajimeba Gachi Head ND
JH / SALT
Target Fish
Large horse mackerel
Feature
Purpose-built for vertical contact.
Ajimeba Gachi Head ND is a jighead designed specifically for vertical-contact ajing. To ensure reliable hook-ups in vertical boat fishing, it focuses on balancing hook strength with hooking performance.
In vertical contact fishing, better-size horse mackerel are often hooked in deep water, and standard light-game jigheads can leave you wanting more strength. Gachi Head ND uses a strength-focused hook design so you can fight fish confidently even in those situations.
The head uses a highly controllable round shape. It keeps a stable posture through vertical-contact actions such as shaking, vertical presentation, and the fall, transmitting horse mackerel bites cleanly to the hook.
This is a dedicated jighead built to hook deep-water horse mackerel with confidence.

About YARIE Hooks
Japanese-made hooks backed by Banshu hook-making craftsmanship.
Drawing on a century of accumulated metalworking technology and hook-making know-how, YARIE pursues hook designs that balance coating, material, sharpness, and strength.
Coating
Surface treatment that supports penetration and durability.
Material
Material selection that supports toughness and resilience.
Sharpness
A sharp hook point created through long tapering and precision processing.
Toughness
Strength and stability created by flattening treatment.
YARIE hooks are designed on the foundation of hook-making technology from the Banshu region of Hyogo Prefecture, Japan's largest hook-production area. Banshu hooks stand at the center of Japan's long hook-making tradition and are known worldwide for their strength and sharp hook points.
Founded in 1925, YARIE is a tackle maker also known as the first company in Japan to manufacture metal swivels. That metalworking expertise and long experience in tackle development continue to shape YARIE's hook design today.
Under quality control in Japan, YARIE pursues sharp hook points and consistent strength. Rather than flashy looks, the focus is on dependable performance you can trust on the water.
