Best Umbrella Rig Jig Head

Omnia collects thousands of detailed fishing reports from anglers across the country to power our local recommendations. Here are the top Bass Jigs recommendations for using the Umbrella Rigs technique mentioned in fishing reports from anglers near you.

Strike King Squadron Swimbait Jig Head

$3.49 – $5.99

Reported by
Nonstop Panic Outdoors

Lake Erie

Nonstop Panic Outdoors reported catching Smallmouth Bass using the Umbrella Rigs technique and Strike King Squadron Swimbait Jig Head on Lake Erie. Additional comments from this report: "Was pre-fishing for a “Working Man’s” tournament series out on Lake Erie and found some quality fish throwing around the A-rig in Canada. You can only have 3 hook points, so the Picasso screw heads played a big role allowing me to keep the same weight on the A-rig and keeping it balanced all around! I caught a few nice doubles of 4lbers then got out of the area and let it sit for the tournament! All of the fish were crushing the pink colored swimbait in the middle of the pack, and they simply could not resist it! All in all, go check out the Picasso Smart Mouth Dummy!"

Fontana Lake (NC)

Ben Hutchins reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Umbrella Rigs technique and Strike King Squadron Swimbait Jig Head on Fontana Lake. Additional comments from this report: "I caught fish throwing an a-rig around bluff walls. Finding fish with livesocpe and then dropping the a-rig down to them can be very productive. "

Carlyle Lake (IL)

KyleMolletFishing reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Umbrella Rigs technique and Strike King Squadron Swimbait Jig Head on Carlyle Lake. Additional comments from this report: "If you want to catch a bunch of White Bass, just downsize your swimbaits. But if you don't want to catch the white bass, run the larger ones or that's pretty much all you'll catch. Most people don't know this technique works here because of that reason. However, the Largemouth are there, you just have to get your bait to them without the White bass getting it first."

Dirty Jigs Matt Stefan Guppy Head

$7.49

Reported by
Justin Nichols

Chatuge Lake (GA, NC)

Justin Nichols reported catching Spotted Bass using the Umbrella Rigs technique and Dirty Jigs Matt Stefan Guppy Head on Chatuge Lake. Additional comments from this report: "We had a cold snap a couple days before which dropped the water temp back down a few degrees. Fish were still moving around some but not as active as earlier in the week. Different sized a rigs slow reeling in creek channels/points, and around structure snagged most of the fish. The biggest fish of the day came on the Aruku shad, steady reeling on the bottom between a dock and some brush. It’s steadily ramping up for spawn, just taking a bit longer because of the extended winter weather. "

Reported by
Hunter Holguin

Kentucky Lake (TN)

Hunter Holguin reported catching Smallmouth Bass using the Umbrella Rigs technique and Dirty Jigs Matt Stefan Guppy Head on Kentucky Lake. Additional comments from this report: "Slow roll the rig around current break and ledges where the fish are."

Reported by
LakeDelavanKid

Lake Of The Ozarks (MO)

LakeDelavanKid reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Umbrella Rigs technique and Dirty Jigs Matt Stefan Guppy Head on Lake Of The Ozarks. Additional comments from this report: "A 112+1 with redline hooks as well as an a-rig proved to be deadly. "

Dirty Jigs Matt Allen Tactical Bassin' Swimbait Jig Head

$5.49 – $7.49

Reported by
Toolman Tim

Lake Norman (NC)

Toolman Tim reported catching Spotted Bass using the Umbrella Rigs technique and Dirty Jigs Matt Allen Tactical Bassin' Swimbait Jig Head on Lake Norman. Additional comments from this report: "Morning bite was shallow on windy banks with an A-rig"

Reported by
Johnny K

J Percy Priest Reservoir (TN)

Johnny K reported catching White Bass using the Umbrella Rigs technique and Dirty Jigs Matt Allen Tactical Bassin' Swimbait Jig Head on J Percy Priest Reservoir. Additional comments from this report: "I don't usually target white bass but saw a bunch of birds feeding on bait and decided to throw a hog farm umbrella rig in the area. Being that Percy Priest has a lot of threadfin shad, I decided to pait the Dirty Jigs Matt Allen Swimbait Jig Head with a 3.3 shad color Keitech Fat Swim Impact swimbait. For my rod, I like a long moderate rod. I've been using a 7'11 Cashion rod with a Quantum HD reel with 20 lb braid. If the fishing is tough and you have white bass / hybrid / striper, I would target these guys. They are fun when you get into a school of them. "

Hemlock Lake (NY)
