The 2.5oz is designed for medium to large inshore and offshore species alike. It's ideal for deep holding Striped Bass, suspending Cobia and Tarpon. And it's a "go to" bait when school sized tuna are dialed in on smaller bait or during stronger tides. The heavier, elongated head design allows the bait to get down to fish cruising deeper in the water column increasing the likelihood of a strike. This bait offers the robust 3X Mustad Ultra Point Jig Hook.
