About this piece
The Deps Clinghead Jig is a specialized jig designed to intentionally snag on structure to trigger strikes from bass. Its football-shaped, low-center-of-gravity head and horizontal line eye allow it to stand up and avoid snags when a bite doesn't come, enabling repeated structure fishing. This innovative jig turns the fear of snagging into a strategic advantage.
Key features
- Football-shaped head with forward low center of gravity for stable vertical fall
- Horizontal line eye prevents line twist and maintains consistent hook position
- Wide-gap, short-shank hook for secure upper-jaw penetration and trailer action
- Tuning-free weed guard essential for structure fishing
- Short-cut head skirt creates tight vibration; long-cut hook skirt flares for attraction
Best for
- Bass fishing in heavy cover and structure (branches, rocks, laydowns)
- Anglers who want to intentionally work snag-prone areas
- Flipping and pitching in shallow to mid-depth water
