Field Notes

Use football jigs to probe and bounce along bottom structure. Cast to cover (rock, wood, weeds edges) and work with short lifts and pauses to keep the jig ticking the bottom and triggering bites.

Pros

  • Football head shape helps it stay stable and deflect off cover
  • Effective for bottom contact and slow, trigger-style presentations
  • Multiple weight options for different depths and current

Cons

  • Can snag in heavy cover if not carefully worked
  • Requires proper weight selection to maintain bottom contact
