Rockfish - Dead Fall Jig

Rockfish - Dead Fall Jig

This lure might be one of the most exciting jigs to fish while drifting for rockfish. The unique V-Shaped underside causes the jig to glide in random directions as it falls to the bottom giving this lure a unique and enticing action. We like to let these jigs hit bottom and do large sweeps with the rod to pull the bait off the bottom and let it glide back down naturally. Lighter colors like Blue Mackerel, Prism Dorado, and White tend to work best in shallow clear water. If you are targeting the true bottomfish species like Copper, China, or Brown Rockfish try throwing Squid, Pink, or Silver Black. These jigs are offered in sizes 3.5oz up to 6.5oz, choose your size according to the depth and current you are fishing in. When fishing shallow (50ft or less) we usually fish the 3.5oz size. In deeper depths of 150ft or more the 6.5oz is a great choice.
