In 2015, MagicTails received a request to create Tog jigs for a specific customer. They initially started with the Banana jig, but soon realized the need for modifications. Each product produced by Magictail undergoes thorough testing.
After using the Banana Jig, it became apparent that the collar hindered the catching ability. The crab couldn't sit well on the hook, and the bait was easily taken off. Thus, the game changer Tog jig was born.
There are several key factors that make this Tog Jig highly sought after. Firstly, MagicTails was the first to remove the collar and expose the hook more, improving bait presentation. They also flattened the bottom of the jig, allowing it to rest flat on the seabed with the hook facing upwards. This angled position ensures that the tog can eat without detecting the presence of the lead weight.
In addition, MagicTails replaced the weaker Jig hooks with a custom 3407 black nickel Mustad hook, which is more durable. They also incorporated a brass eye into the design. Currently, the Jig is available in white legger, green crab, and chartreuse/orange color variations.
