03 / DEEP / JIGGING
Vertical Jerks.
Heavy iron for sulking fish. Slow-pitch, speed jigging, diamond jigs. When the school is stacked on a ledge and topwater is a joke.

SHIMANO
Slow-pitch jig that fishes itself on the drop. Tuna, AJ, anything mean at depth.
SHIMANO
Speed-jigging staple. Long, lean, falls fast, climbs faster. AJ tax.
WILLIAMSON
Less famous than Shimano, half the price, all the bites. The smart-money pick.
SEA FALCON
Slow-pitch holy water. Falls like a wounded baitfish. Costs like a wounded wallet.
NOMAD DESIGN
Knife jig with a glow finish for deep, dark water. Tuna think it's the only thing in the column.
HOPKINS
The original Northeast diamond jig — chrome hammered metal, white bucktail, and a half-century of striper carnage on record. Drop it, rip it, repeat until your arms give out.
HOPKINS
Same Hopkins DNA, lighter — the right call when the bait is small and the fish are finicky. Spanish mac, snapper blues, or whenever the 1oz gets waved off.
BLUEWING
Under nine bucks for a chrome diamond jig with a stainless hook and a split tube tail that flutters on the drop. Lose it on a snag and it hurts less than therapy.
BLUEWING
When you need to punch through current or reach bottom in 80 feet, the heavy chrome series is how you do it. 8oz and 10oz are the sweet spot for tuna and big bluefish from the rail.
