BEMIDJI,MN - Today's high-tech soft plastics haven't had an official jig head to mate with ... until now. The distinctive new jig from Northland Fishing Tackle® -- the world's largest producer of jigs -- was designed expressly for casting and pitching soft plastics & biodegradable baits, and keeping them securely in place cast after cast, fish after fish. The new first mate is called ... the SLURP JIG!

The SLURP JIG! is hand sculpted with a lifelike minnow head developed to mimic one of game fish's most desired forage ... a live baitfish minnow. It is designed with a premium Mustad® UltraPoint™ hook that yields unmatched hooking performance, and features a unique “double-barb” BarbWire™ keeper that securely grips and holds plastics firmly like super glue.

Northland Fishing Tackle Slurp Jig Package

“The SLURP JIG! is the most lifelike looking head ever designed for soft plastic grubs, shads and minnows,”says TEAM NORTHLAND™ Pro Bass Angler Dean Capra. “I rig ‘em with a fluke or jerk shad and swim it in the upper half of the water column for suspended and schooling smallmouth and largemouth bass. It is also extremely effective for swimming 4” & 5” grubs. Fish SLURP ‘em up!”

“The SLURP JIG! is the answer for rigging all the new generation soft plastics and biodegradable compounds,” says PWT & FLW Walleye Pro Gary Roach. “Traditional jigheads often split the plastic and slide down the shank, but the new SLURP JIG! holds them firmly. I have also had some incredible catches just tipping them with live bait minnows such as a shiner, chub or redtail.”

The SLURP JIG! is available in 3/32, 1/8, 1/4 & 3/8 oz. sizes and in proven colors including true-to-life White Chad, Gold Shiner, Emerald Shiner, Rainbow Trout, Sunfish and Sunrise. They are deadly for walleyes, smallmouth bass, largemouth bass and everything that eat!
