Slow-Fall Wide Metal Jig Spoon
Slow-Fall Wide Metal Jig Spoon
This metal jig is built with a wide, flat profile that flutters and glides on the fall, mimicking a dying baitfish rather than dropping straight down. The slow-sink design keeps it in the strike zone longer, which matters when bass are holding tight to structure or suspended over deeper water. A durable metallic finish throws flash on every jig stroke.
It pairs a front assist hook with a rear treble, giving solid hookup coverage for short strikes and slashing bites. Work it around ledges, drop-offs, and river mouths for largemouth, and off points or bluffs for smallmouth. It also holds up to incidental pike and saltwater species when bass fishing overlaps with mixed water.

How to fish it
- Cast past the target structure and let the jig fall on a controlled slack line to feel the flutter.
- Work it with sharp upward jig strokes followed by a pause, letting it glide back down on a semi-slack line.
- Focus on ledges, river channel edges, and deep points where bass stage in cooler or off-season conditions.
- Watch your line on the fall since most strikes come as the jig flutters down, and set the hook on any tick or tightening.
Frequently asked
The 20g works well in skinny to mid-depth water, while the 40g and 60g get down faster in deeper reservoirs or current.
Yes. Brighter, flashier finishes like this blue and pink show up better in stained water, while more natural shad patterns suit clear conditions.
A medium-heavy to heavy casting or spinning rod with 12 to 20 pound fluorocarbon handles the weight and gives you solid hook-setting power.
It is built with bass fishing in mind but the flash and fall also draw strikes from pike and inshore saltwater species when conditions overlap.
