Jackson - G-Control 28
Specifications
About this lure
The Jackson G-Control 28 combines distance casting with a responsive, versatile swim action that performs across a range of retrieve speeds.
Its standout feature is the mid-belly second lip, which adds lift and resistance to counteract the lure’s natural sink rate. This design allows the lure to swim with excellent stability and responsiveness, even at slower retrieves, something most heavy-sinking minnows struggle with. The G-Control 28 delivers a strong rolling action with a subtle kick, making it an ideal choice when fish are following but not committing.
- Belly lip design creates lift for better low-speed action
- Consistent swimming at slow, medium, or fast retrieves
- Heavy 28g body for long casts into deeper structure
- Subtle roll and kick action for added realism
- Super sinking model – 93mm, 28g, rigged with #5 hooks
A smart option for anglers needing casting distance and control without compromising swim quality.

How to work it
Cast the G-Control 28 into deeper structure and work it on a steady, medium retrieve to trigger the rolling action and subtle kick.
Drop the retrieve speed to slow and the lure remains stable and responsive, a key advantage over most fast-sinking minnows.
The mid-belly lip lifts the lure and resists its natural sink, allowing you to hold it in the strike zone longer than typical heavy sinkers - ideal when fish are following but hesitant to commit.
The 28g weight delivers excellent casting distance, so use it to reach distant structure or deeper water where a lighter lure would fall short.
