Known for the quality and innovation of its products since 1965, Hayabusa offers a range of lures that meet the varied needs of anglers, particularly for vertical fishing. While the company has a strong reputation for its famous Sabikis, it now produces a full range of lures that are very important to me in my fishing.
Jigs and slow jigs: techniques and performance
Classic Hayabusa jigs are listed under the Jack Eye brand. There are numerous casting jigs from 20 to 150 g depending on the model, including the Jack Eye Mackerel Spin with its famous spinning paddle that emits numerous vibrations and flashes of light underwater. I recommend it for bass casting jigs. For depth and Slow lovers, you won't want to miss the Jack Eye Slow with its huge luminous eye. This is the point that makes the difference in depth, with a particular liking for the phosphorescent colors. Available in 4 colors from 90 to 250 grams.
Hayabusa slow jigs are distinguished by their high-quality finishes and butterfly movements, captivating deep-water pike, pollack and bass.
Inchikus: the appeal of hybrids
Inchikus are hybrid lures that combine a jig with a silicone skirt, simulating the appearance of a small fish or squid. Hayabusa excels in the design of these lures, with well-balanced lead heads for fast descent and sturdy hooks ensuring a secure hold. The inchikus are perfect for targeting bottom fish such as pike-perch or grouper, but also beautiful pollack, their unique presentation being ideal to entice predators to attack.
The aptly named "Kick Bottom" comes in 3 colors from 80 to 150 grams. Enough to satisfy fishing in a wide range of areas.
Madai: traditional Japanese elegance
Inspired by Japanese fishing techniques, madaïs are often round jigs adorned with skirts that imitate octopus or squid. Hayabusa's free-slide jigs are characterized by their attractive colors (from yellow to red, orange and green) and subtle movements, targeting fish such as denti and pike-perch, as well as sea bream, which love them. These lures are often acclaimed for their ability to seduce even the most wary fish, even in heavily fished waters.
Tuning fork: efficiency, versatility and originality
For sea and freshwater fishing, vibrating lures are a must. Hayabusa offers compact, slender models designed to vibrate intensely on retrieve. This vibration effectively attracts the attention of predators such as bass and pike-perch. The blades also allow a wide variety of animations, from fast retrieves to sawtooth animations. The advantage of the Shake VIB and Makimaki Vib blades is that they have 4 levels of grip, allowing slow to fast retrieves with just as much vibration! But above all, they are equipped with a paddle that increases vibration and light flashes underwater. A must-try on the bar, especially at slow speed (fourth hooking hole).
The Japanese excellence of Hayabusa products
What sets Hayabusa apart is its attention to detail: realistic finishes, quality materials and ultra-resistant hooks. Whether you're a passionate angler or an expert, lures from this brand will meet your expectations and maximize your catch.
By exploring Hayabusa's range, you can be sure of reliable, high-performance equipment for your next adventure on the sea. The techniques of jigging, slow jigging, inchiku and the use of madaïs or vibrating blades are not only effective approaches, they become a pleasure to practice thanks to the products of this renowned brand.
