Anyone know what this jig is?

I read its being used to hook up tuna that are staying down.

I've been using the typical metals;;;; not working.

You could also use a spoon end two holes like FF said but I use mine for sea bass, their @cheap Yard sales Like Soup spoons

When the jigs are working the hammered finish diamonds seem to do as well as the $25 a pop jap ones.

Yup that is what I heard. I'll have ready for next year, I think I'm done for tuna this year, freezer is full and the bass are in big time.
