Field Notes

Use a football jig to probe rocky or weedy bottoms and feel for subtle contact. Cast and let it fall, then work it with short hops or a slow drag to keep the skirt moving while the head stays on the bottom.

Pros

  • Good bottom contact for feeling structure
  • Football head helps it skip over rocks and resist snagging compared to round heads
  • Versatile for dragging or hopping

Cons

  • Requires bottom contact to be effective
  • Can still snag in heavy cover if not worked carefully
