Description

Not every angler knows the benefits of a quality hair jig but IYKYK and if you don’t you better find out. Because finding out can help you put a lot of bass in the boat in short order. Especially if you are fishing smallmouth cruising the flats. Hair jig techniques have become increasingly popular thanks to the success of anglers in the northern US and some Bassmaster Elite anglers from Canada. A quick search on YouTube will put you on the right road to get started. So, order your jigs now and then sit down and watch some videos. By the time your jigs arrive you will be ready to run out and test them out. You can thank me later. Hair jigs are not the easiest thing to find. You can find some, but you either have to wonder about the quality, or they are priced out of this world. That is why we are pleased to carry Tom’s Jigs. These jigs are poured and tied by a local who knows the benefits of a quality jig. Those are two of the reasons Tom started pouring and tying his own jigs. To this day Tom ties every jig as if it is one he is going to throw. It is the kind of quality you can only find in a local artisan. I know I mentioned bass but so many different species will love hair and/or marabou jigs. Personally, marabou jigs are my favorite when I have the itch to catch some crappie. Whether it is bass, crappie, bluegill, trout or pretty much anything else, these hair jigs will make your fishing trip that much more successful. I expect you may have some questions since this is a new product so please reach out to me through my email or on one of my social media DMs

Field Notes

Hair and marabou jigs excel when bass are feeding on small, subtle forage and want a natural presentation. They are especially effective for smallmouth cruising flats, and can also work well for crappie, bluegill, and trout. Cast and let them swim or hop with a light, finesse-style retrieve.

  • Good for pressured bass and smallmouth
