Target Fish
Horse mackerel, mebaru, scorpionfish, and rockfish
Feature
A jig hook built for power-game situations.
Ajimeba Gachi Hook is a light-game jig hook designed for stronger fish such as better-size horse mackerel and large mebaru. Its strength-focused design gives you the confidence to handle powerful runs.
The hook point is finished sharp enough to convert even light inhaling bites from horse mackerel and mebaru into solid hook-ups.
It works not only for size-focused light-game fishing from harbors and breakwaters, but also in current-heavy spots and deeper areas. It is a dependable option for boat light-game fishing, including vertical-contact ajing for larger fish.
Weight can be adjusted freely with split shot, letting you fine-tune the rig to match the situation.
One-Size Design
Hook #6
Ajimeba Gachi Hook is built around a single #6 size.
That size balances the strength needed for better-size horse mackerel and large mebaru
with the hooking performance required for light inhaling bites.
It can be used with jig-head rigs, Carolina rigs, float rigs,
and many other light-game setups.
Jighead / Hook Selection Guide
Choose your jighead or hook based on method and target species.
YARIE's light-game lineup gives each model a clear role based on the situation you want to target.
Fast Hookset
Fast Hooking / Short-Bite Response
Hooking-focused models built to convert light inhaling bites and short strikes.
Ajibaku Jig Head leans more heavily toward ajing,
while Mebary Hayagake is an easy-to-use fast-hooking option
for broader light-game fishing, including mebaru and rockfish.
Swimming
Swimming / Range Control
Models that prioritize swimming balance and holding the intended range.
Best when you want to keep the worm tracking steadily
with straight retrieves or drift-based presentations.
Ami Pattern
Ami Pattern
Dedicated models for situations where fish are feeding on tiny ami shrimp.
For fine adjustments to range and weight, including split-shot setups,
the Ajimeba Army Hook is the better choice.
Barbless
Efficiency / Catch and Release
The barbless design makes hook removal easy and supports a fast-paced rhythm.
Best for high-numbers fishing
and situations where catch and release matters.
Rockfish
Rockfish / Strength Focus
Strength-focused jig heads built around a heavier-wire hook.
Best for scorpionfish, grouper, and other rockfish,
or whenever you expect slightly larger fish.
They also suit situations where you want to fish deeper with a heavier weight.
Ajing Power
Power for Better-Size Horse Mackerel
Power models built for better-size horse mackerel and large mebaru.
They balance the strength needed for bigger fish
with the ability to respond to horse mackerel bites,
making them a strong fit for size-focused ajing and boat-contact styles.
Vertical
Vertical Contact
Dedicated models for vertical fishing from a boat.
Best when you need a reliable hook-up in deeper water or moving current.

About YARIE Hooks
Japanese-made hooks backed by Banshu hook-making craftsmanship.
Drawing on a century of metalworking knowledge and hook-making experience, YARIE pursues hook design that balances 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.
