When the bite gets tough and the bottom is where the big ones live, the Roughneck Football Head Jig is built to go to work. Designed in Texas with precision, sensitivity, and power, this jig is your go-to tool for dragging structure, feeling every rock, and triggering reaction bites from pressured bass.
The Roughneck isn’t just another football jig. It’s a purpose-built weapon for offshore structure, ledges, hard bottoms, and deep-water transitions. Every detail is engineered to help you stay connected, detect subtle bites, and drive the hook home with confidence.
The beveled football head design enhances bottom contact and transmits more feedback up the line. Whether you're crawling through chunk rock, shell beds, or gravel, you’ll feel exactly what your bait is doing—so you know when to slow down, speed up, or set the hook.
Outfitted with a hand-tied premium silicone skirt, the Roughneck delivers lifelike movement and a fuller profile that flares naturally on the pause. Combined with 8 proven fish-catching patterns, you’ve got the right look for any water clarity, forage base, or season.
At the core is a custom Mustad hook—sharp, strong, and designed for clean, confident hooksets at any depth. Whether you’re dragging deep or stroking offshore, when they bite, they’re coming back with you.
