Tungsten has made a name in jig fishing, first with premium bass jigs and sinkers boasting enhanced “feel,” and more recently, with small baits designed for catching panfish through the ice. The good news is, tungsten construction and high-quality performance has now come to multi-species fishing for walleyes, crappies and more. Say hello to Eagle Claw’s new Lazer Sharp Tungsten Pill Jigs.

Tungsten baits are denser and more compact than lead, leading to increased performance. You can fish the same weight jigs in a smaller package to achieve enhanced results.

Eagle Claw Tungsten Pill Jigs have a compact, pill-shaped tungsten head to deliver a faster, more direct fall and clearer transmission of bottom feedback and light bites through the rod. The pill-shaped head is designed to fall true and track predictably, reducing drift and guesswork when fishing vertically or tracking a bait on electronics.

Once the jig is on the bottom, tungsten makes it easier to distinguish between rock, gravel, mud, and vegetation, as well as detect subtle ticks that can be missed with lead. That clarity helps anglers fish more deliberately and time hooksets better.

A double-barbed, plastic keeper helps hold soft plastics securely in place to reduce slippage and extend bait life. Less time rerigging translates to more drops and more time fishing.

Eagle Claw Tungsten Pill Jigs deliver a compact presentation and enhanced feedback you’ll feel in your hand. They’re available in 8 finishes and three sizes—1/8-, 1/4-, and 3/8-ounce—equipped with 2/0, 3/0 and 4/0, Pro-V hooks, respectively. They have plenty of hook gap to accommodate the use of soft plastic bodies and retain excellent hooking characteristics. Lazer Sharp, needle-point jig hooks feature upgraded designs, materials, and finishes to deliver sharpness, strength, and confidence in every cast.

Tungsten ain’t cheap, however. Tungsten Pill Jigs come in 2-packs ranging from $9.99-$15.99 MSP, depending on jig weights. Unfortunately, many anglers still fail to appreciate the performance difference between tungsten and lead, especially when combined with top-quality components. Think of them as an investment in your fishing, for when using nothing but the best is necessary to catch fish.

Want a thrill? Take a Pill… jig fishing, of course!
