The Outkast Tackle Chicken Jigs are a spin on the ”preacher jig” and reels in some of the biggest bass seen out offshore rocks and ledges, hard bottom areas and above heavy grass in deep water. The Chicken Hair Jig features synthetic hair at its base, giving it a bulky profile and a tantalizingly slow fall rate. This feature allows you to launch this jig a mile and gives you the ability to cover a ton of water. Its fall rate also allows you to fish slowly in ”the juice” and keep the bait moving at a very slow pace. This hair jig was named the Chicken after its two long chicken feathers that run down the middle of the jig, which create a natural swimming action that perfectly imitates large baitfish.
Another feature that makes the Chicken Hair Jig so special is that it’s paired with the renowned ”Goldeneye” style head and a stout 5/0 VMC heavy wire hook. Unlike preacher-stye jigs, however, the line tie on this model is at 30 degrees, keeping this bait level and running true for its bottom crawling action.
