Field Notes

A football jig is a bottom-contact lure for dragging, hopping, or stroking along rock, gravel, and other hard bottoms. The marabou, bucktail, and silicone skirt give it a natural profile that works well when bass are feeding near bottom cover or structure.

Pros

  • Football head is good for bottom contact and structure
  • Hand-tied skirt and baitkeeper help hold trailers and add action
  • Light-wire Owner hook can improve penetration

Cons

  • Best suited to slower, bottom-oriented presentations
  • May be less effective in heavy vegetation than a weedless jig
