When to Use a Rainbow-Coloured Metal Jig in New Zealand

A rainbow-coloured metal jig, particularly one that features prominent pink, yellow, and blue colours, is an ideal lure for targeting a variety of fish species in New Zealand. The combination of these vibrant hues helps mimic baitfish and stand out in different water conditions, triggering strikes from predatory fish.

Ideal Conditions for Using a Pink/Yellow/Blue-Coloured Metal Jig

Clear to Lightly Stained Water: The pink, yellow, and blue colours are highly visible in clear or lightly stained water, where the bright hues reflect light and draw fish from a distance.
Daylight Hours: The reflective surface of the jig works best during daylight when the sun enhances its bright colours, especially the yellow and blue flashes.
Shallow to Medium Depths: This jig is suitable for shallow to medium depths (5-30 metres) where its bright appearance and lifelike movements are most effective.

Target Species with a Rainbow-Coloured Knife Jig

Kahawai: Found in estuaries and harbours, Kahawai are drawn to the pink and blue flashes of this jig, making it a great choice when retrieved quickly through the water column.
Snapper: A rainbow-coloured jig is perfect for Snapper when jigged near the bottom in rocky areas or reefs. The reflective colours, particularly yellow and blue, attract Snapper even in deeper waters.
Trevally: Trevally are attracted to brightly coloured lures, and the combination of pink, yellow, and blue can mimic the flash of baitfish near structures or drop-offs, making this jig ideal for targeting them.
Kingfish (Juveniles): Juvenile Kingfish are known to chase fast-moving prey, and the bright, contrasting colours of this jig—especially pink and yellow—make it an excellent choice for targeting them.
Mackerel: Fast-moving Mackerel are drawn to the bright, flashing action of this jig. The yellow and blue hues mimic the baitfish they naturally feed on, making this jig highly effective.

How to Fish with a Pink/Yellow/Blue-Coloured Metal Jig

Fast Retrieve: A fast retrieve is ideal for predatory fish like Kahawai and juvenile Kingfish. The pink and blue flashes from the jig mimic fleeing baitfish, triggering aggressive strikes.
Vertical Jigging: Drop the jig to the bottom and use quick, sharp lifts to mimic an injured baitfish. This technique works well for bottom-feeding Snapper, especially in deeper water where the bright colours stand out.
Slow Jigging: For species like Trevally, use a slow jigging technique with rhythmic lifts and drops to keep the jig visible longer in the strike zone, allowing its vibrant colours to attract fish.

Conclusion

A pink/yellow/blue-coloured metal jig or rainbow-coloured knife jig is a highly effective tool for targeting fish species such as Kahawai, Snapper, Trevally, and juvenile Kingfish in New Zealand. The bright, reflective colours of pink, yellow, and blue mimic baitfish, making this lure particularly effective in clear water during daylight. Whether using fast retrieves or slow jigging techniques, this jig is ideal for shallow to medium depths and can significantly improve your fishing success.
