17. HWS (Hidden Weight System) Jigheads
Hidden Weight System (HWS) jigheads present a lure with a neutral, more enticing and natural decent, with the jighead weight hidden inside the soft plastic for an ultra-natural presentation. In tough conditions this can mean the difference between a strike and a look.
HWS excel when a finesse presentation is vital, such as clear and still conditions. The weight is strategically placed along the shank to favour the middle of the bait, in turn letting the lure flutter down randomly, rather than falling head first. The weight also features the multi grip grub keeper, that is ideal for locking on all brands of soft plastic, including ZMan. Built on razor sharp Gamakatsu hooks, HWS jigheads are ideal for your favourite hard hitting light tackle species and are dynamite on bream around pontoons and marinas.
The larger varieties of HWS jigheads produce well on snapper over shallow inshore reefs and barramundi on the flats.
Available in a range of sizes from 1/40oz #2 to 1/6oz #7/0H.
