Quick take
Set of five slow-fall metal jigs with glow strips and stinger hooks for offshore vertical jigging.
At 8 5/6 oz (250 g), this silver lead jig is a heavier option for vertical jigging in saltwater, sized for deeper water. Its flat back and glow strips on the front help it flutter and flash as it falls, with a pair of glow-tasseled hooks on the body.

- Saltwater fishing at night or in dark water
Skip if

- You want a lure to cast long distance
Strengths
- Slow-fall design allows fish time to strike on the drop

About this type
A lure is an artificial bait that draws a strike with its shape, color and movement.
Each kind is built for certain depths and ways of fishing.
Weight decides how far a lure casts and what rod and line it needs; color changes how visible it is in the water.
