The QUIKSET jig features a unique flexible, kick- back action fiber weedguard that enhances the feel when fishing structures such as brush piles, rock beds, stumps and bluff shelves. In addition to the special weedguard, it has an extra- long shank hook. The hook enables fishermen to catch fish on the slightest bite.The weedguard with its flexible action enables fishermen to pierce through only an 1/8 inch of the rubber skirt. The skirt will not pull off when a fish bites or when colliding with underwater structures. To apply the skirt, see the four steps on the jig package or website.
