Using Weedless Football Jigs On Reefs
Here’s a video showing one of my favorite use cases for these weedless football jigheads… bouncing lures through thick structure:
Featured Equipment:
- Lure: Power Prawn USA – Original
- Jighead: Hoss Weedless Football – 1/2 oz with 4/0 Hook
- Reel: Daiwa BG MQ – 3000
- Rod: Custom Prototype (7’6″ MH Fast)
- Mainline: J-Braid 8 Grand – 20 lb
- Leader: Ande Mono – 30 lb
Conclusion
If you plan to fish structure from 3 ft of water down to 100+ ft with soft plastic lures, these jigheads will be a huge benefit because they are easy to rig and they come with hooks that are strong enough to handle powerful fish.
Personally, I have found these jigheads paired with Power Prawn USA lures to be the biggest boost of all to my fishing over the past year since I can finally fish deep structure areas without constantly getting snagged on the bottom.

I am going to have to give the power prawn a try on some offshore fish. Good example on its use.
Any talk of making the hoss weedless football jigs in 1/8 oz for the shallows?
That new prototype rod looks promising!
Originally I asked what was the jig head now I know, 2oz is perfect for seabass in Nj 90′ with powerprawn on on Alabama
good to know
Glad to see that you enjoyed this update
Nice fish and I like that u now have the heavy foot ball set up
Glad to see that you like the heavier size options.
That bullfight was intense. Rod did just fine. I presume your “prototype” rod is not the Slot Machine?
Correct… that’s a heavier version of the Slot Machine.
Nice ! It would also be nice to have an oz and a half too I use that size alot for rock fish I’m md
Thanks for sending in the recommendation.
I was a big fan of the Tex-L Texas Eye, but it tears up anything but Z-Man soft plastics. I switched to the Hoss Football when I saw them. Love the new larger sizes for Fluke and Striper fishing here in the northeast. Great jig to use around jetties and rocks especially if you’re land based and need some casting distance. .
Yes, the TX-Eye jigheads are great for Zman lures, but they don’t work well for other soft plastics which is why I use these Hoss Weedless Jigheads much more often now.
Thanks for adding the link to the depth guide below..
