How to work it
The Whiptail Jig 60g is a sinking jig designed for vertical jigging and lift-drop retrieves in the 2-10 m zone.
Cast and allow it to sink, then work it with sharp upward lifts followed by controlled drops-the whiptail action and integrated rattle system create vibration and sound on both phases to trigger strikes.
The 60 g weight gets the lure down quickly and holds depth during the retrieve, making it effective in deeper holes, current, or low-visibility conditions.
Pair it with medium to heavy jigging rods and braid for direct feel and hook-set power.
