Here at Lee's Global Tackle we have the pleasure of bringing you the angler some of the finest in High Quality fishing tackle from around the world. The sport of Bass fishing seems to be growing by the day, and with the increased popularity the same old tackle doesn't cut it anymore for most innovative bass fisherman. This is why Lee's Global Tackle has gone out to find the latest and greatest in the fishing world. There are many domestic shops where you can find Lucky Craft lures and Jackall Bros. baits, but only here can you find a source for hard to find colors and sizes. The special hard to find colors and sizes are usually found in Japan and are called Japanese Domestic Market baits (JDM), because this is where they originated. By taking lures that American anglers have been using for years and totally reworking them until they are perfect, the Japanese have revolutionized the bass fishing world. One of the unique features of the JDM lures is that they are of extremely high quality. This quality tackle gives fishermen the confidence that they need to not just compete against the other fishermen, but the elements.

New Japanese fishing techniques are being developed weekly. Some of these specialized techniques require special tackle to throw them. Finesse fishing is a huge Japanese technique however most American bass fishermen are used to fishing heavy line with heavy baits in heavy cover. Anglers that are unfamiliar with finesse fishing would freak out about using 3-4 lb. test fluorocarbon line for smallmouth fishing.On the other hand for those open mined anglers who try lighter quality line, you will notice a huge difference in the amount of bites you will get. Now for those open minded fishermen that are switching to the light high quality fluorocarbon lines they will notice that those lines only come in small 110 m. or less size spools.The problem they will run into is cast ability and spool depth. What the JDM reels feature is the option for a shallow spool, different drag weights, and handle length. I could talk about the features that JDM reels have over American market reels all day, but you really need to experience them for yourselves.

Jigs-How many times have you noticed that your jig skirt is slipping down the hook shank on a hook set or fish catch? Well if you are like me, you can appreciate how a Hand-Tied skirt that stays on the jig like white on rice. Companies like Jackall Lake Police , Megabass, and O.S.P. have also innovated the Jig world by designing new jig heads and eye placements, to make sure that bait has irresistible action and hook ups.

Crank baits- JDM manufactured crank baits are almost like small pieces of art. The leaders in the Japanese Hard Bait world are Lucky Craft, Megabass and Jackall Lake police.They have developed crank baits for any condition. For example Megabass has a crank bait called the "Griffon" and this bait comes in seven different models, some have rattles, some dive to different depths, and some have different actions. Now this is just one of eleven model crank baits that Megabass makes.Lucky Craft makes seventeen different Trout and Salmon color patterns for a BASS BAIT. One could go mad trying to choose a color in a JDM hard bait, but personally I love it (my wife says am clinically insane).

Soft Plastics-The JDM soft baits are something you really need to check out if you are a worm fisherman. For years I have been destroying giant smallmouth bass on the great lakes with the Jackall Cross Tail Shad on light line.I have not kept this a secret and shared the information with many others who have all done the same, now I am talking about the US version of the Cross Tail.If you thought these worms were super soft and high quality you haven't even seen the Super Cross Tail Shad baits, they have eyes, scales and a profile of small baitfish. I personally love the hand poured baits that have come from Japan. Another example of a high quality soft plastic bait is the O.S.P. Do Live Craw (most popular bait in Japan).The Do Live Craw is a crawfish bait that comes in four different sizes, they feature a "spot on" crawfish scent, reverse legs that vibrate during the fall, and two giant claws that flap back and forth during the fall. Never have I seen such a well developed crawfish imitator, and it works like a charm, that's why we can't keep them in stock.

Whether it's Spinning reel that looks like it came from the year 2050, a precision wound spool of Finesse Fluorocarbon line that you could read the newspaper through, or a Jerk bait that shifts its weight to cast like a missile I would like to invite all open minded anglers to experience the world of the Japanese Domestic Market.
