Size & Weight Specifications

Design, Finish & Build

• Body and core: high-density lead in 5 weights from 30g-90g, built to sink true and stay stable through the fall.
• Finish: a holographic laser scale finish, a glow-in-the-dark luminous coating that keeps working after dark, 3D zebra-stripe contrast banding, across 5 colour options (A, B, C, D, E) to match bait, light and water clarity.
• Hardware: laser coating (no hook) as standard.

Usage Scenarios & How To Fish It

• Deep-water wreck and pinnacle drops
• Vertical jigging over rock bommies when the current is running
• Drift jigging along current lines and bait balls
• Slow pitch from a drifting boat in 40-150 m
• Offshore boat fishing over reef, rubble and sand patch edges
• Technique: work the jig with slow pitch and one-pitch jerk. Let it fall with a long, fluttering slide on a slack line, then take up the slack before the next lift.
• Tackle: PE 2.0-3.0 braid and a 40-60 lb fluorocarbon leader, with a rod rated for the weight you are fishing.

Target Species

Sized from 30g to 90g, this slow pitch jigging lure is aimed at inshore and light-tackle species: Mackerel, Sea Bass, Snapper, Tuna, Grouper. Fish the lighter end of the range over pressured inshore ground and the heavier end when you are dropping into current over deep structure.

Tournament-Grade Rigging

This listing is supplied as the bare jig body so you can dial in your own rigging. PROBEROS hand-tied assist hook sets are available in every size this series uses, so you can match the hardware to the jig.

Every PROBEROS assist hook set is tied by hand, never crimped together by a machine. A high-strength PE braided main line is knotted down onto the hook shank, then wrapped with fine binding thread in 80-100 tight turns, locked with adhesive, and flash fibers are laid in during the wrapping so the leader reflects light and keeps moving in the water. Every finished set is built to hold 150 lb or more: even if the hook is straightened or snapped under load, the tied leader will not slip off the shank. That is the difference between landing the fish of the trip and losing it at the boat. Match the hook size to the jig weight and to the fish you are chasing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which weight should I choose?

Match the weight to depth and current rather than to the size of the fish. This listing covers 30g through 90g: fish the light end in 10-30 m and over pressured fish, and the heavy end when you are dropping into 100 m plus with current running.

Is the assist hook included?

No. This listing is the bare jig body, which keeps the price down and lets you match your own hook. Add a PROBEROS hand-tied assist hook set in the matching size.

How do I work this jig?

Let the jig reach the bottom or the target depth, then use slow pitch and one-pitch jerk. On slow pitch gear one long lift followed by a controlled fall does most of the work, so keep the line just tight enough to feel a take on the drop.

Will it hold up in saltwater?

Rinse the jig in fresh water after every session, dry it fully and store it out of direct sun. Check the split ring and the hook point each trip, and swap the assist hook once the point rolls over or the leader starts to fray.

Care & Storage

Rinse with fresh water and dry after every saltwater session, check the split ring and the hook after heavy structure contact, and store the jig in a box rather than loose in a bag so the finish stays sharp.
