The
V-Flat Alien Head is based off of the highly-praised V-Flat. The
V-bottom
fluttering jig carries on the flat slap and skillful ability to slip
through
cover. The entire head with its sharp contours cuts into the cover and
avoids obstacles it contacts. During bottom bumping, the head tilts to
the
left or right, creating a self-generated flat slap action. This
reaction
triggers bites that previous jigs had trouble attracting. Weedguard

Japanese jigs add dimension
to the category
The jig is a lure category that has come a long way since an
inventive dude first decided to take his sinker off his line and squeeze it
directly to his hook! Anglers and lure makers have tinkered with head shape for
the last few decades. But don’t be fooled by the relative simplicity of the
jig. The pace of modification and improvement has accelerated dramatically in
recent years.
And leave it to the Japanese to adopt the finest components,
add features, and find new ways to improve jig performance!
By reshaping heads, altering hook style and size, adjusting
hook eye angle, and adding superior paint jobs and skirts, the jig has gone
from a generic piece of terminal tackle to a sophisticated, finely engineered
artificial lure.
