The Shimano Butterfly Flat-Fall Jigs use a center-balanced design to create a slow, horizontal wobbling action as the jig falls through the water column. Unlike traditional vertical jigs that descend quickly in a more direct path, the Flat-Fall's hydrodynamic profile allows it to flutter and move laterally on the drop, keeping the lure in productive water longer. This falling action imitates a wounded or struggling baitfish and can trigger strikes from predators holding near the bottom as well as fish suspended at mid-water depths.
Flat-Fall Jigs can be dropped vertically beneath the boat or cast away and allowed to descend on a controlled or free fall, providing flexibility for different depths and fishing conditions. The flattened keel and balanced body are designed to generate action primarily during the descent, making the jig particularly effective when fish are responding to slower presentations. Each jig comes rigged with dual Owner Dancing Stinger assist hooks and heavy-duty assist cord for dependable hook-setting performance.
