Jig HALCO Karcass - 20 g

Product highlights

The Halco Karcass Jig 20 g Chrome Pink is a slow jig specifically engineered for sea fishing targeting the wariest predators. Thanks to its streamlined profile, this metal jig for sea fishing slices through the water on the fall while producing an attractive flutter that triggers strikes from a distance. The Chrome Pink finish reflects maximum flash and remains visible in low light, making it a formidable choice for both coastal and open-water fishing.

Designed for both vertical jigging and cast-and-retrieve, the Karcass Jig 20 g offers great versatility. Its slow, gliding action at minimal rod movement effectively targets sea bass, pollock, bonito and other marine predators. Its factory rigging with BKK assist hooks — razor-sharp and reliable — ensures a high hookup rate even on tentative bites.

Advantages and strong points

The main advantage of the Karcass Jig 20 g Chrome Pink is its ability to quickly locate active fish. Its shape allows it to sink very fast through the water column, ideal for reaching a school detected on the sounder or a spot held by current. Once at the desired depth, a few small rod twitches give it an extremely attractive fluttering action.

Its efficiency in slow jigging makes it an excellent choice when predators are sluggish. Instead of fleeing, the lure glides, rolls and flutters, imitating an easy wounded baitfish. This natural presentation often triggers the most decisive strikes where more aggressive lures fail.

Another asset of this Halco jig is its great stability during fishing. Even in current or during vigorous vertical animations, it stays true to line, reducing tangles with the leader. The BKK assist hooks fitted at the head improve hooksets and limit unhooks during fights under the boat.

Finally, the Chrome Pink color provides excellent visibility both in midwater and near the bottom. The chrome reflections mimic baitfish scales while the pink accent creates a focal point predators instinctively target when striking.

Usage tips

To get the most from your Halco Karcass Jig 20 g, use a sensitive rod and thin braid to feel often subtle bites on the fall. Let the jig sink freely while keeping slight contact with the line: many strikes occur during this phase when it naturally flutters.

In vertical jigging, lift the jig off the bottom with a rod pull, then let it fall freely. Alternate quick animations to trigger active fish and slow, deliberate slow jigging when bites are scarce. In cast-and-retrieve, let it sink to the desired depth then retrieve with pauses and short rod taps to enhance the flutter.

Match retrieval speed to fish behavior: the more wary the fish, the slower and smoother the action should be. To limit equipment wear, always rinse your metal jig and assist hooks with fresh water after each sea outing and regularly check hook points to maintain maximum sharpness.
