Quick take
1-ounce bucktail jig with glow finish and Gamakatsu hook, designed for saltwater jigging and casting.
This heavy 6-ounce Prime Bucktail in Spearing Blue is built for getting down deep in saltwater. The glide-and-swim action carries over from the lighter sizes in the line. It is a pick for fluke and other bottom feeders, and bass and walleye can be targeted with it too.
