Where Zig Jigs work in Alaska

Alaska anglers have caught salmon, Arctic grayling and trout on Zig Jigs. Places like the Kenai and Russian rivers and the streams of the Mat-Su Valley have some of the strongest fish anywhere, and grayling fill clear streams across the state.

For salmon and big water, use a 1/4 to 1/2 oz Super HD with its 2x steel hook. For grayling and trout, a 1/16 or 1/8 oz works well. Either way, the jig zig-zags like wounded prey as it falls, and about 90% of our strikes come on the drop.

Why marabou

The best fishing lure for the drop

Marabou jigs are a favorite among anglers because their soft, flowing feathers create lifelike movement that mimics wounded baitfish and triggers aggressive strikes. Developed in Arkansas and perfected on the White and North Fork Rivers, Zig Jigs take this proven lure to the next level with a unique offset head that creates a natural zig-zag fall instead of dropping straight down.

This action keeps the jig in the strike zone longer and drives fish crazy. Hand-tied with premium marabou, a durable powder-coated head, and a sharp, extra-strong hook, Zig Jigs are proven to catch trout, walleye, crappie, and bass across the country.
