shimano stinger butterfly jigs

Hello
Has any one heard of these jigs. I was reading an article in Saltwater sportsman about these jigs and I would like to get a look at one. However, I can not find any place that one may be able to purchase or at least look them over. The report in the magazine was quite favorable.

Thanks puter
I found an ad for tackeldirect.com in my saltwater sportsman magazine. They specifically named that they had the shimano jigs. Maybe it was just a matter of time

Butterfly Jigs

I tried the Buterfly rig (system) after being talked into by the guys in our office in Houston. Hooked up a couple of times and had them breakoff under the rigs. The guys in Texas swear by them. So far all I've got from them is one **** of a pull and an empty wallet. Anyone else had any luck with them of found a cheaper source for them?

Mark....

Mark,
I drove down to Dogfish Tackle the other day and they had another brand on the wall right beside the expensive ones (believe the brand name was called "River 2 Sea" ?) for about half the cost... Here is their web page link so you can call them and find out for sure http://www.dogfishtacklecompany.com/id34.htm

I looked at the site posted by Putershark and from what I see in the picture there is nothing special bout these jigs. A number of manufacturers make them and you can buy them at BassPro Shops and Cabellas or even Walmart.

Seems to me the high price is, "Oh, wow - Japanese!", and the Shimano name (which to my knowledge isn't associated with fishing lures).
