About this piece
The Jackson Athlete 105SSP is a sinking plug designed for surf and rocky shore fishing, targeting flatfish like flounder and Japanese whiting. Its 10.5cm size matches the most common baitfish size, reducing pressure on wary fish. The rear weight placement ensures exceptional casting distance despite the compact size, while a tight wobbling roll action triggers strikes.
