The Jigging World V2 Blackfish Candy Jigs are expertly designed to target and successfully catch the elusive and prized Tautog, also known as blackfish. Catching Tautog can be a challenge due to their strong jaws and their preference for structure. Tautog fishing often involves fishing around rocky bottom, wrecks, or pilings, where blackfish love to feed. Jigging for Tautog has become increasingly popular as it often results in less bycatch compared to other methods, like bait fishing with rigs.

- 3x Strong Jig hook: Each jig is equipped with a custom 3x strong small gap jig hook, providing the strength needed to handle the powerful bite and fight of the blackfish.
- Optimal Weight Design: The jig's weight is molded to ensure it stands upright on the seabed, presenting the bait in a tempting way and increasing the chances of a hook-up.
- Easy Bait Rigging: To present a natural looking bait, simply attach a piece of crab by hooking it through the leg sockets and let the jig sink down to the waiting fish.
- Versatile Application: While specifically targeting Tautog, these jigs can also prove successful when fishing for other species like flounder and striped bass, making them a versatile tool in an angler's tackle box.
- Improved Jig Performance: The jig's features collectively work to improve the performance of the angler's presentation, thereby increasing the success rate of hooking and landing blackfish.
