NLBN Tuna 4X Super Duty Jig Heads

BKK 4X-strong hook. Bright tin finish. Built to stop bluefin.

The NLBN Tuna 4X Super Duty Jig Heads are the heaviest-duty jig heads NLBN makes built around a custom BKK hook with 4X-strong wire that doesn't bend out under sustained tuna pressure. The inward-looking point design provides superior hook-setting and holding power once you drive it home, the bright tin coating delivers serious corrosion resistance and adds flash that draws strikes from distance, and the one-piece solid construction eliminates the failure points that cheaper jig heads have. Fits both 5" and 8" NLBN baits. Five weights from 3/4 oz to 3 oz, five proven colors covering offshore and inshore work.

Why We Like It

The BKK 4X hook is what makes this jig head cheaper jig heads with 1X or 2X hooks straighten out on serious tuna pressure, and you lose the fish at the boat. The 4X wire holds, and the inward-looking point design means the hook stays in once you drive it home. NLBN has earned a reputation as one of the best soft-bait builders in the business, and the Super Duty jig head matches that quality. The 1.5 oz and 2 oz Limesider go first every year striper guys know.
