Fishing Idaho waters

Where Zig Jigs work in Idaho

Idaho anglers fish some of the most famous trout water in the West. The Henry's Fork and the South Fork of the Snake are known for big rainbows, browns and cutthroat. The Boise and Clearwater rivers and Lake Pend Oreille in the north have plenty of fish too.

A Zig Jig's offset head makes it zig-zag on the fall like wounded prey instead of sinking straight down. About 90% of our strikes come on the drop. Use a 1/16 or 1/8 oz in smaller water and a 3/16 or 1/4 oz in big rivers and lakes.

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.
