About this piece
The Deps Headlock Jig is a 1 oz football jig designed to trigger strikes from finicky bass with a unique standing action and low-trajectory bottom bumping. Its wide football head with a recessed line eye keeps the jig upright, allowing the trailer to move independently while the jig stays in place, ideal for slow, precise presentations.
Key features
- Wide football head design prevents tipping for stable bottom contact.
- Recessed line eye position creates a standing action that moves the trailer with minimal shaking.
- Short shank, chemically sharpened hook with a curved point for solid penetration and reduced drop-off.
- Rear-set line eye helps the jig escape snags by sliding upward when head gets wedged.
- Trailer hold wire secures soft plastics firmly in place.
Best for
- Finesse flipping and pitching in rocky areas, riprap, and offshore structures.
- Slow dragging and strolling for pressured or slow bass.
- Crawfish imitation in clear to stained water.
