What is a jig hook used for?
A jig hook is the hook that is the jig: the bend is built to take a lead head. Not a casting jig lure, and not a ready-made jig head.
How is a jig hook different from similar gear?
The hook is the armature. Jig heads are the weighted version on the sinker slot. Methods include jigging, spinning, and ice fishing.
When should you use a jig hook?
Use it when you pour or buy a lead-head jig, including ice and spinning jigs.
What problems does a jig hook solve?
It is the hook that stays in line with the head so the jig swims and hooks in one piece.
