Rubber Jig RAID JAPAN Foot Master 14 g

Product advantages

Designed for demanding anglers, the FOOT MASTER RAID JAPAN is a tungsten rubber jig engineered for ultra-precise presentation right on the bottom and around obstacles. Its compact tungsten football head gives it high density, allowing it to reach fish-holding zones quickly while maintaining a stable, controlled action. Tungsten, being harder than lead, transmits information perfectly: every stone, branch or substrate change is felt through the rod, making the FOOT MASTER an extremely sensitive jig for predator fishing.

The generously supplied silicone skirt provides a full, lively profile to the lure. At the slightest movement the strands open and close, imitating the pulses of a prey probing the bottom. Combined with a sharp, durable hook, this skirt creates a very attractive silhouette ideal for triggering bites from both active fish and wary predators. Thanks to its weedguard system designed to preserve excellent penetration into the fish’s mouth, the FOOT MASTER can be worked into heavy cover without fear of unnecessary snags.

Technical specifications

Advantages and key strengths

The main asset of the FOOT MASTER football jig lies in its incredible ability to fish slowly while keeping maximum feel. Where many lures lose control the moment they touch bottom, the FOOT MASTER remains readable in the rod, allowing instant adjustment of retrieve speed, swim height or animation intensity. This control is decisive on wary fish or those holding in complex zones.

Its compact tungsten profile also promotes long, accurate casts—even into the wind. You can easily reach distant breaks, bridge piles, rock piles and deep edges where the biggest specimens often hold. The voluminous skirt plays a key role: it slightly slows the fall, creates a pulsing halo that is highly attractive and allows the angler to vary the perceived size of the lure simply by changing the trailer.

On the water, the FOOT MASTER proves highly versatile. It handles slow, bottom-skimming animations with short hops as well as faster retrieves in a “swimming jig” style just above structures. Whether used in straight-line retrieves, dragging or controlled vertical presentations, this predator rubber jig remains effective and always readable in the angler’s hand.

Usage recommendations

To get the most from the FOOT MASTER RAID JAPAN, pair it with a sensitive rod of power suited to your jig size and a fine braid finished with a fluorocarbon leader. Cast beyond the target zone, let the lure hit the bottom, then start a sawtooth animation alternating short pulls and marked pauses. At each pause the head settles while the skirt continues to pulse, often triggering the strike.

In heavily snagged areas, don’t hesitate to fully exploit the weedguard by working the FOOT MASTER close to branches, rock blocks and submerged structures. Match the trailer to fish mood: a creature or craw imitation for a compact, discreet profile, shad or finesse trailer for a more pronounced swim and extra vibratory signal. In cold water or on pressured fish, slow down as much as possible, keep constant contact with the bottom and favor long pauses.

During periods of high activity, the FOOT MASTER also excels on continuous retrieves just above structures. This “swimming jig” use covers ground quickly while staying very close to holding spots. Vary swim height and speed to find the day’s best combination and fully exploit this tungsten football jig for predatory fish.

Answer: The FOOT MASTER RAID JAPAN is designed for jig fishing for predators that feed near the bottom, such as fish holding on breaks, rocky zones, bridge piles or cluttered structures. Its sensitive tungsten head, voluminous skirt and weedguard system make it a prime choice for all technical slow-prospecting fishing or controlled power fishing in contact with the bottom.
