Quick take
Center-balanced butterfly jig that falls with a horizontal wobble, designed for vertical jigging in offshore waters.
This is a 100 g butterfly jig in Chart White, about 4 inches long, built for working deep saltwater structure. A flat keel and centered balance let it flutter down horizontally, so it stays in the strike zone while you free spool or cast and let it fall. It comes rigged with two Owner Dancing Stinger hooks on heavy assist cord, ready for slow-pitch style jigging.
Best for
- Deep-water vertical jigging from boats or anchored positions
- Targeting fish suspended at specific depths over structure
- Free-spooling techniques at known drop-off locations
Skip if
- You prefer to cast and retrieve lures
- You fish in shallow water or around weeds
Strengths
- Center balance keeps the jig horizontal during the fall, staying in the strike zone longer
- Wobbling action on the drop triggers bites from reluctant fish
- Stinger hooks with assist line increase hookup rates on deep fish
Trade-offs
- Butterfly jigging requires vertical presentations over precise structure
- The horizontal fall is slower than other jigs, limiting depth coverage
- The technique demands experience reading depths and bottom composition

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.
