About this piece
The Deps Headlock Jig is a football-style jig featuring a wide head design and a rear-set line eye that promotes an upright standing action. This unique design keeps the trailer moving in place and enables low-trajectory bottom bumping to trigger reaction strikes from slow bass.
Key features
- 1/4 oz head weight with silicone skirt.
- Wide football head prevents tipping over on the bottom.
- Recessed line eye creates a standing action to animate the trailer.
- Short shank, offset-point hook improves hook-up ratio in tough conditions.
- Head pulls upward over obstacles rather than wedging, reducing snags.
Best for
- Flipping and pitching around rock piles, riprap, and hard-bottom cover.
- Slow, methodical bottom presentations targeting pressured or cold-water bass.
- Fishing submerged structure like fish attractors and ledges.
