Snoopy's Custom Lures Teardrop Style Tube Jig Heads

Teardrop Style Tube Jig Head

The Teardrop Style Tube Jig Head is specifically designed for precision fishing with soft plastic tube baits. Its teardrop shape provides an ideal weight distribution, making it perfect for working the bottom or slow-falling presentations. Available in various sizes, this jig head ensures excellent action and balance, allowing for long casts, smooth retrieves, and easy control in various water environments.

• Streamlined Teardrop Shape: Designed to fit snugly inside tube baits, the teardrop shape delivers a natural presentation, ideal for slow falls or dragging along the bottom.
• Sharp Hook: The hook is designed for quick penetration and durability, ensuring excellent hooksets even during subtle bites.
• Versatile Weight Options: Available in multiple sizes, it provides flexibility to fish at different depths and in various current conditions.

Rigging Options:

• Internal Rigging for Tubes: Insert the jig head inside your soft plastic tube and push the hook eye through the head of the tube. This internal rigging provides a streamlined profile that mimics a fleeing or injured baitfish.
• External Rigging for Bulky Presentations: For a larger profile presentation, you can rig the tube externally, allowing the jig head to add weight and give the bait more wobble.

Where to Use:

• Deep Water: The teardrop design is perfect for fishing in deeper waters where a controlled, slow fall is essential to get to where the fish are holding.
• Rocky Bottoms and Structure: This jig head is ideal for dragging along rocky bottoms, through deep cover, or near structure like submerged logs or boulders. The streamlined shape helps reduce snagging while maintaining bottom contact.
• Clear Water: Its natural, subtle action makes it ideal for clear water, where fish are more sensitive to unnatural presentations.

Types of Baits to Pair With:

• Soft Plastic Tube Baits: The best pairing for this jig head. Its internal fit allows for an effortless, natural swimming action that mimics crawfish or baitfish, depending on how it’s fished.
• Small Swimbaits: You can also use it externally with small swimbaits, adding a bit of weight while providing a compact presentation.

Techniques:

• Dragging: Slowly drag the jig along the bottom, mimicking crawfish or baitfish movements. This technique is particularly effective for smallmouth bass, walleye, or any species feeding near the bottom.
• Vertical Jigging: Perfect for fishing drop-offs or ledges, this jig head excels when vertically jigged in deeper waters, allowing for a subtle yet effective movement.
• Hopping: Cast near structure and gently hop the jig along the bottom, letting the tube’s skirt flare and attract fish.

The Teardrop Style Tube Jig Head offers the perfect balance of versatility, action, and subtle presentation. Whether you’re targeting bass, walleye, or panfish, this jig head is an essential tool for bottom presentations and finesse techniques.
