Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is a shaky head jig?

A shaky head jig is a specialized jig that creates a subtle, enticing wobble when dragged across the bottom, imitating the natural movement of prey. Its distinctive shaking action is particularly effective for attracting cautious fish.

2. Why are a pointed nose and angled eyelet important in a jig head?

The combination of a pointed nose and an angled eyelet is central to a jig head's performance, especially when navigating through heavy cover, reducing the likelihood of snags and improving lure action.

3. What does a hook-eye recessed design entail?

A hook-eye recessed design involves setting the eyelet of the hook back from the jig head's leading edge. This strategic placement contributes to a more streamlined profile and reduced snags.
