IMO, this brand is the best designed, made, and quality jig to be had on the market, bar none. The detail in the painting, the highly reflective eyes, the genuine bucktail, and finally the lazer-sharpened Gamakatsu brand hooks all add up to arguably the most effective swimming minnow jig to be seen in years. These lures, when used alone or tipped with a trailer such as Gulp!, account for at least as many summer flounder as live bait along the Northeast Coast, especially in N.J. Though many colours are offered and effective, the white seems to be the #1 choice for the nearshore and surf fisherman. Due to the design of the head and placement of the hook’s eye, this lure can be fished just below the surface with a rapid retrieve, or throughout the water column. For those fish that are bottom feeders, the retrieve and rod tip are worked slower. The lure is moved in slower spurts ( to a crawl, if necessary ) over the bottom until a strike is acheived. Once the species of fish is determined, the water column and action are adjusted accordingly: bluefish, striped bass, weakfish and fluke all love this lure. And I love this lure simply because they do.

I love the Spro Buck tails.. Never failed me. The Gamakatsu hooks are almost indestructible. I have never had one fail .. I brought up a 8 lbs Fluke on a 3/4 ounce.. The hook bent but i didnt lose the fish which made it well well worth the money to me

Hands down, the # 1 brand and colour,
