About this piece
The Deps Headlock Jig is a football-style jig designed for slow, bottom-focused presentations in tough conditions. Its wide football head and offset line eye create a unique standing action that moves the trailer with minimal rod movement, ideal for triggering reaction bites from sluggish bass.
Key features
- Wide football head resists tipping over for stable bottom contact
- Recessed line eye shifts pivot point rearward, enhancing standing posture
- Short-shank, recurve point hook penetrates easily and reduces drop-offs
- Trailer hold wire secures soft plastics firmly
- Head shape pulls upward to clear snags in rock piles and riprap
Best for
- Flipping and pitching into cover like rock piles, riprap, and brush
- Slow dragging and bottom bumping for pressured or cold-water bass
- Crawfish imitations in clear to moderately stained water
