Skipping/Arkie Style Jigs
Perfect for skipping under docks, overhanging branches or laydowns, pitching into the tightest of cover, or slowly picking apart every shallow piece of timber in your waters. The versatile head design allows this lure to easily be fished around timber, through grass, or dragged on rocky and hard bottoms. With the right technique and rod/reel setup, you can put this jig in front of the biggest fish living under any dock; making it a staple within my personal arsenal. Although the compact size and shorter hook shank appears under-powered for lunkers, you can confidently pull a sharelunker out of thick cover with a quality hook that won’t bend out.
Football Jigs
Designed to maintain bottom contact by dragging slowly with a horizontal “sweeping” motion of the rod, accurately imitating crawfish as they move slowly on hard surfaces. With the slow retrieval speed allowing fish to closely inspect your jig, a detailed appearance and realistic action can make the difference between catching lunkers or getting skunked. If you’re in an area that you know has fish, and they won’t bite with a slow drag, try “stroking” your jig by giving it two quick consecutive vertical snaps of the rod. This imitates a crawfish fleeing from a predator and can activate the “fight or flight” instinct within bass. Works extremely well on main lake points with harder surfaces.
Swim Jigs
Excellent for shallow water while fishing at a fast pace, busting through vegetation or slow rolling in open water. With a snap of your rod to rip free from grass, create a reaction strike and put a tournament kicker fish in the boat. Pair it with a craw/creature style bait for shallow water, or a swimbait for deeper water. Each skirt color, type of material, and pattern is designed to provide the most realistic action and appearance to “match the hatch” of local waters in NE Texas.
Finesse Jigs
When the fishing is tough due to the local weather conditions or high fishing pressure, finesse jigs are extremely effective at imitating a smaller forage species that may be more appealing to a wary bass that’s seen countless lures. With a compact profile and subtle action, the decreased amount of water displacement created by your jig can help you catch fish where others don’t; all without sacrificing the potential and confidence of landing your new personal best fish.
Pitching Jigs
This jig head profile can do everything, and is particularly good at putting big fish in the net. Fish it by dragging on a hard bottom, working it through standing timber and stumps, or picking apart shallow lay-downs.
Available in a wide variety of color patterns to best suit your body of water.
Comes with an excellent, 5/0 Mustad hook and incredibly strong weed guard.
The jig that I’d choose if I had to fish with only one jig for the rest of my life.
Countless jig fishing experts and novices would both likely agree, especially after fishing this jig; and it’s the only jig a “junk” angler will ever need.
