This new jig delivers your presentation to the strike zone faster and with a better live sonar return than traditional lead.

The Tungsten Roach Jig comes in eight colors, including Black, Glow, Glow Chartreuse, Glow Juicy Lucy, Glow Metallic Rainbow, Glow Metallic Red, Glow Orange, and Glow Pink. Ultra Glow finish allows the jig to be seen at lower depths and during the night bite.
