Magic Minnow Red Ed
It doesn’t come more realistic and life-like than these seafishing jigs. Scientific reports reveal that in many areas redfish (Sebastes marinus) is the main food source for Atlantic halibut. In example scientific research on the stomach content of Atlantic halibut from the important Icelandic fishing grounds in the North Atlantic showed that 75 % of the food by volume was redfish*. The adult redfish is abundant in deep water from 100-1000 m while smaller juveniles are found in Fjords, bays and inshore waters. And you can be sure that even when the big halibuts move into very shallow water they will remember and appreciate their favorite snack… An important part of our development took place at a sea fishing camps in Norway. The results and inputs from our cooperation with Nordic Sea Anglings camps suggest that this is not just a lure – it should be considered as an important part of the food chain! Red Ed comes in 2 realistic or psyched up colors that will turn on any big halibut, cod etc. It is designed with a unique, interchangeable hook and weight system to slide inside spare bodies. Choose between two updated weights/ sizes – 360g or 460g including a spare body. All Red Ed jigs are made with premium quality, chemically sharpened sea fishing hooks, durable painting and active eyes.
