Joe's hand tied football head jigs. Natural crawfish. 1/2 oz.

Being a west coast boy, born and raised in Arizona, I was very blessed to have been exposed to fishing football head jigs from some of the best ever. Guys like Gary Yamamoto, John Murray, Ben Matsubu, Mark Kile, and a host of other great fisherman. 

I learned early on that not all jigs are created equal. More importantly, I learned first hand why some guys love football jigs, because they do catch big bass, but other guys hate them because they lose so many fish. 

In 40 years of fishing, buying, making and selling football jigs, I feel that I've learned a few things about this amazing, yet, often misunderstood bait. The proper hook is absolutely everything in my opinion. We use a needle sharp, medium wire ultra point hook, because it allows you to simply pull the rod away from the fish with minimal pressure, even in deep water, resulting in full penetration without tearing the fishes mouth, which also greatly increasing your odds to land that fish.

The right weedguard, placed in the head at the right angel is vital. We only use a soft, medium flex weedguard, because it easily flexes down to ensure a good hookset while minimizing hangups. 

By using ultra fine cut skirt material, our jigs flex and more more naturally in the water. We also hand tie all of our football jig skirts in place to maximize durability. At this point you may be wondering, why do you only offer a few colors? Honest answer, because that is all you need. A shad color and crawfish color will always produce. If you need to make color changes, do it with your trailers. 

If you are looking to be the bass fisherman you can be, I invite you to pick up some of our time tested jigs, and go out and catch some fat bass. We currently offer these in two custom colors, and it color is available in 1/2 & 3/4 oz.

Pro tip. I prefer fishing a 7'4" medium or medium/heavy action rod with a soft tip with fooball jigs, and I typically spool a high speed reel with 12 or 14 pounmd Gamma fluorocarbon.
