Monster Jack and Barramundi

One of the most barramundi catching baits for me is absolutely Fish Arrow's Monster Jack. Maybe, I have bought 10 of them, and all of them were destroyed by barra.... Expensive lure, though.

Fish Arrow Monster Jack

There are many pros and cons of this lure.
Bad points are expensive and easy to get broken; however, it catches many barra. It has caught more barra than bass I used do in Japan.

 

Monster Jack is a wooden bait. Not plastic. Therefore, it contains a strong buoyancy . When Timberflash (Evergreen) is too aggressive on the surface and Silent Killer (Deps) is too tight to appeal to barra, I would choose Monster Jack. 

This means Monster Jack sits in the middle of 2 of kickass baits; consequently, I mostly start casting MJ at the fishery. 

But Like I said, it breaks up very easily. The tail comes off very easily. The hook heaton comes off easily. The worst is the jointed body broke off after catching some fish. 

When my Monster Jack retires its mission, it's always the body joint broken. 

Maybe, Monster Jack is for bass fihsing, not for Barramundi fishing....
