Coda Lures PIG SKIN "Football" Jig
Coda LuresHard Bottom? Hard Hooksets.
When you're targeting offshore structure, bluff walls, or deep rock transitions, the Pig Skin Football Jig from Coda Lures is your bottom-contact bruiser. Built to crawl, pause, and grind through gravel, shell, and chunk rock, it brings a wide stance, powerful hook, and hand-tied precision into one tournament-caliber jig.
The football-shaped head is meticulously balanced to maximize bottom feel while resisting rollovers. You’ll stay upright longer, maintain contact on long casts, and reduce the frustration of hang-ups in jagged terrain.
At its core is a 4/0 OWNER Jungle Hook, a no-nonsense, heavy-wire beast built to hold big fish during sweeping offshore hooksets. The larger gap and stout profile match up perfectly with full-bodied trailers — especially Barracuda Baits creatures, craws, and chunk-style plastics that enhance underwater movement without compromising fall rate or balance.
What makes the Pig Skin special is the hand-tied wire skirt, cinched directly to the head for durability, consistency, and subtle, natural flare. No slipping. No rotting. No uneven distribution. Just pure, repeatable performance.
Offshore bass fishing isn’t about luck — it’s about information, control, and commitment. The Pig Skin Football Jig gives you a tool worthy of that mindset.

Weight Options
Available in 3/8 oz, 1/2 oz, and 3/4 oz
Choose 3/8 oz for shallower rock transitions and slow climbs
1/2 oz is ideal for ledges, mid-depth points, and hard contour lines
3/4 oz is the go-to for 15–25 ft structure, strong current, or windy days
Long Cast & Drag
The Pig Skin shines when bombed across points or dragged uphill along contour lines. Its broad head provides feedback and flare at every pause. Pair with a Barracuda Baits craw or creature to add lift and secondary movement.
Downhill Hops
When fish are positioned nose-down on structure, use a quick lift-drop cadence to trigger strikes. The skirt breathes, and a compact Barracuda trailer mimics vulnerable forage.
Post-Spawn Deep Water
During summer drawdowns or thermocline setup, switch to the 3/4 oz and cover deep offshore humps and roadbeds. Trailers like Barracuda’s chunk-style plastics keep the jig planted while adding drag and thump.
Cold Water Bottom Contact
In winter or early spring, the Pig Skin’s compact profile and wire-tied skirt present a slow, natural fall that fish won’t resist. Tip with a Barracuda Baits finesse craw to keep it compact and subtle.
Barracuda Baits Trailer Pairings
Creature Baits – Add bulk and vibration for deeper water or stained conditions
Craw Trailers – For subtle but natural flaring motion on pause and drag
Chunk-Style – Classic pairing that balances the jig and slows descent
Slim Paddle Tails – For bottom-hugging retrieves with subtle kick action
Every Barracuda Baits soft plastic is designed to complement the Pig Skin’s football head profile, ensuring balance, line tension sensitivity, and correct posture even when the jig is paused on the bottom.
