Description

One of the truly effective but very underutilized jigs for steelhead is the tinsel jig. We've not only used premium flash but also wrapped the body in tinsel as well. And of course it has XXX strong voodoo hook. 1/32 oz only and 1 per pack

Field Notes

Use this tinsel jig for steelhead when you want a compact, flash-heavy presentation. Cast and let it sink, then use short jigging lifts or gentle retrieves to keep the tinsel fluttering and drawing strikes.

Pros

  • High flash from premium tinsel helps attract steelhead
  • Compact jig profile is easy to work at different depths
  • Includes a strong hook

Cons

  • Very light weight (1/32 oz) may be harder to control in strong current
  • Tinsel can lose effectiveness if it gets damaged or fouled
