Quick take
Five floating jigs with buoyant heads that suspend live minnows, leeches and crawlers over structure and vegetation.
The High-Ball Floater is a jig head built to hold a live minnow, crawler or leech just off weeds, moss and rocks. It comes in assorted colors on a #2 hook, and it is aimed at walleye, perch, bass, trout and crappie. Anglers who work shallow cover or drag bait along the bottom will find it a handy choice.
