About this piece
The Buddy Works Onbait is a metal jig designed to deliver lively, fluttering action even in current or wind. Its name plays on the concept of an "on-bait" — the opposite of an off-bait — meaning a switched-on, aggressive lure. This jig maintains an effective range while producing an animated, flapping motion that triggers strikes.
