About this lure

The Uroco Jig Short is a compact, high-response slow pitch jig designed to fire quickly into a darting fall before sliding into a relaxed drift. Its broader, shorter profile mimics compact baitfish perfectly, making it a deadly choice whenever predators are keyed on small prey. A drag-catching tail edge allows the jig to pivot and turn with minimal effort, giving clean action even in challenging currents. Exceptional for reef, demersal, and pelagic species including snapper, kingfish, trevally, and more.

  • Compact slow-pitch profile – ideal when fish want smaller prey
  • Dart–glide action – sharp initial fall then a controlled, enticing slide
  • Tail-edge drag design – promotes quick turning with minimal rod input
  • Broad body shape – enhances flutter and presence in the strike zone
  • High-quality paints and foils – durable finishes that stand out underwater
  • Demersal focused – perfect for deep reefs and structure-holding species

How to fish the Uroco - Short Jig

Big Kev's Tips

How to work it

The Uroco Short is a slow-pitch jig designed for deep reef and demersal work in 30m+ zones.

Drop it vertically to the bottom, then work it with short, sharp rod lifts followed by controlled slack-line drifts.

The jig's compact profile and tail-edge drag design create a darting fall and gliding action that mimics small baitfish with minimal rod input - even in strong currents.

Target snapper, kingfish, trevally, and other structure-holding species by maintaining contact with the bottom and working the jig through the strike zone with rhythmic, economical movements.

Which weight, and when

120 g Ideal for lighter currents and shallower reef work within the 30m+ zone; easiest to work with minimal fatigue.
150 g Balanced choice for moderate currents and mixed reef depths; versatile across most conditions.
180 g Suits stronger currents and deeper structure; maintains bottom contact and control in challenging conditions.
210 g Best for heavy current, extreme depth, or when you need maximum drop speed and bottom-holding power.
