Field Notes

Use football jigs to probe bottom and cover rocky or irregular structure where the head can deflect and still keep contact. Cast and let it sink, then work with short hops and pauses to trigger bites from bass holding near cover.

Pros

  • Football head helps it stay in contact with the bottom and deflect off cover
  • Good for slow, bottom-oriented presentations with a natural fall

Cons

  • Requires careful weight selection to maintain bottom contact in different depths/currents
  • Can snag in heavy cover if not worked with controlled hops
