Bucktails and Other Jigs
The jig head comes in a variety of shapes, patterns, weights and colors. The weight of the jig is critical to its application. Jigs vary from miniatures that weigh 1/32 oz. up to giant jigs of 32 oz. or more.
The jig skirting can vary or be left off. Popular materials are deer hair, artificial hair, feathers, and rubber filaments.

Striped Bass Jigs
Umbrella Rigs, Parachute Jigs, Dredges and More
Small jigs are often used to cast or jig for schoolie stripers. Larger jigs are used while fishing for larger striped bass.
In places such as the Chesapeake Bay, anglers troll large jigs in singles, pairs or as part of umbrella rigs or dredges.
Umbrella rigs contain several teasers which attach to the arms of the rig. A jig is attached at the center and trails just behind the group of teasers.
Parachute rigs are another type of large jig. Parachutes are trolled to catch striped bass and bluefish. They feature inverted synthetic hair, attached similar to sea witch skirting. Parachute jigs can be monsterous in size, from 4 to over 30 oz.
