Additionally, the Slobberknocker excels at coming through vegetation and traversing wood or other forms of hard structure. Topped off with a hand tied PowerBait flavored skirt, Fusion19 hook, and intricate color options, we are raising the bar and delivering exactly what anglers need in a bladed jig.

The Phenix Vibrating Jig is built around a custom Mustad 5/0 O'Shaughnessy Needle Point Black Nickel Hook. Attached to it is Phenix's Custom Stainless Steel Vibrating Blade using their Patented Blade Clip. The jig features the perfect combination of vibration, erratic action and weedlessness. The skirt is attached with a high quality rubber keeper which gives the jig maximum flaring action. The coned bait keeper keeps your trailers firmly in place.

Black Blade unless otherwise noted

A collaboration with Elite Series Pro Aaron Martens... The Picasso Shock Blade Tungsten Knocker is
constructed around a solid, one piece, 97% tungsten football head. This creates added sensitivity, and generates extreme vibration and “hunting” action that flat out catches fish. Being a much smaller profile than its lead counterpart makes it a great choice for targeting spotted bass, smallmouth bass and large mouth bass.

Ideal for working areas that you would typically throw a football jig or crank bait such as gravel banks, hard clay bottoms, rocky points, rip rap, and off shore humps and ledges. Our exclusive super soft silicone skirt material creates fish enticing undulation that is comparable to that of rubber skirt material. Extra long skirt length allows you to custom trim or use without the need for a trailer. Call ‘em home for dinner with the unique sound produced by the blade knocking the tungsten head.

Available in 1/4, 3/8, 1/2, 3/4 and 1oz sizes.

Equipped with a 6/0 Gamakatsu hook.
