Product highlights
The
DUO Drag Metal Cast Shot is a
metal casting jig specially developed for targeting predators in both saltwater and freshwater. Its design focuses on casting distance, versatile presentation options and the ability to provoke strikes both on the fall and during retrieval.
Its compact body features
flat sides that create a highly attractive action. On the fall, the lure rolls side to side and emits strong
flashes that mimic an injured baitfish and immediately draw predator attention.
At the rear, a treble hook is paired with a blade, adding
extra vibration and further enhancing attraction. This flash + vibration combination keeps the Drag Metal Cast Shot effective in varied conditions: clear or stained water, overcast or sunny skies, and both sparsely or heavily fished areas.
Designed to be
easy to use, it is suitable for both experienced anglers and beginners seeking an
easy-to-work lure while retaining high fishing performance.

Benefits and strengths
The main advantage of the
Drag Metal Cast Shot is its ability to cast very far. Its compact profile combined with its density allows it to cover long distances even in windy conditions. This makes it an excellent choice for
shore fishing when you need to reach distant feeding fish or explore wide areas.
Its behaviour on the fall is another key point: the
lure glides and rolls irregularly, perfectly imitating a distressed baitfish. Many strikes occur precisely during these controlled fall phases, making it invaluable for probing bottoms, ledges and drop-offs.
The blade on the
rear treble hook provides an additional visual and vibratory signal. It spins and flashes at the slightest movement, often triggering follow-up strikes from hesitant fish. Even on a simple straight retrieve, this blade keeps the lure highly attractive, which is ideal for anglers new to jigs.
Finally, its great versatility allows it to be fished in several ways:
- With successive rod snaps (rod tip strikes + pause) to alternate fast rises and gliding falls.
- By pulling, letting the lure fall with the line semi-taut to give it room to glide.
- With a simple straight retrieve, particularly suited when fish are actively chasing in open water.
Usage tips
To fully exploit the potential of the
DUO Drag Metal Cast Shot, vary your presentations frequently. After casting, let it fall while keeping the line slightly taut: you will take advantage of its natural gliding action and feel strikes on the fall more clearly.
A very effective presentation is to chain
sharp rod snaps followed by pauses of varying length. With each jerk the jig pops and flashes, then falls while rolling side to side. Don’t hesitate to include pauses, as many fish strike just as the lure begins to plunge again.
On a straight retrieve, adjust the speed to fish activity: slow when predators are wary or inactive, faster during intense feeding periods. It is possible to alternate a few jerks with regular retrieval to provoke follows and strikes.
The
Drag Metal Cast Shot can be used in shallow areas as well as at greater depths simply by adjusting the fall time before starting the action. In both sea and freshwater, try different water columns (surface, mid-water, near bottom) to find where the fish are holding.

Many anglers appreciate the DUO Drag Metal Cast Shot for its ability to reach distant marks and trigger strikes even when fish are reluctant.
