Lead Masters Glow Banana Jig Head – Eye-Enhanced Luminescent Design

Description

The Lead Masters Banana Glow Jig Head is a purpose-built squid rig jig head with four features that work together for White Seabass, Calico Bass, Sheephead, and Sand Bass: a banana-shaped elongated profile that mimics a squid mantle, high-illumination glow paint that calls fish in from a distance in low-light and deep water conditions, a molded red eye for added visual attraction, and a bait keeper barb that holds squid and soft baits securely in current and on the retrieve. The extra-large 6/0 hook (6/0 for 1/4–1.5 oz, 8/0 for 2 oz) accommodates multiple baits and ensures a solid hookset on large game fish. 2 per pack.

Key Features

• Banana-Shaped Profile — Squid Mantle Imitation — The elongated banana shape mimics the profile of a squid mantle — the primary food source for White Seabass, Calico Bass, and other Southern California game fish during squid spawning events; the banana profile produces a natural, streamlined presentation when rigged with a whole squid or squid strip that closely matches the natural squid silhouette that game fish key on.
• High-Illumination Glow Paint — Low-Light & Deep Water Attraction — The glow paint charges under UV light or a flashlight and emits a high-intensity luminescent glow that is visible to fish in low-light conditions, at depth, and in turbid water where standard painted heads lose visibility; charge the head before each drop for maximum glow intensity; most effective during night fishing for White Seabass and Calico Bass when squid are most active near the surface and at depth.
• Molded Red Eye — Visual Trigger — The red eye molded into the head provides a visual focal point that triggers strikes from predatory fish; the red eye mimics the eye of a squid or baitfish and gives the jig head a lifelike appearance that increases strike rates compared to a plain painted head.
• Bait Keeper Barb — Squid & Soft Bait Security — The barb on the head keeps squid, squid strips, and soft baits secured in place during the retrieve and in current; prevents the bait from sliding down the hook shank or spinning off on the cast — critical when fishing whole squid in current where bait movement would otherwise dislodge the squid from a standard jig head.
• Extra-Large Hook — Multiple Baits & Solid Hooksets — The 6/0 hook (1/4–1.5 oz) and 8/0 hook (2 oz) are sized for large game fish and accommodate multiple baits — a whole squid plus a squid strip, or a squid plus a sardine — for a larger, more attractive presentation; the large hook gap ensures a solid hookset on White Seabass, Calico Bass, and Sheephead.
• 2 Per Pack — Two jig heads per pack; provides a backup when fishing structure where snags are common.

Size Selection Guide

Best For

• White Seabass — Squid Rig — The primary application; rig a whole squid on the Banana Glow Head and fish at depth during squid spawning events; the glow paint, banana profile, and red eye combine to produce a highly effective White Seabass presentation that mimics a live squid; most effective during night fishing when White Seabass are actively feeding on squid near the surface and at depth.
• Calico Bass — Effective for Calico Bass around kelp and structure with squid and squid strip presentations; the glow head is particularly effective during low-light conditions and at depth in the kelp canopy where light penetration is reduced.
• Sheephead & Sand Bass — The banana profile and glow paint are effective for Sheephead and Sand Bass on squid and soft bait presentations around rocky structure and reefs; the bait keeper barb keeps the squid secured during the retrieve through structure.
• Night Fishing — The high-illumination glow paint makes the Banana Glow Head most effective during night fishing when squid are most active; charge the head under a UV light or flashlight before each drop for maximum glow intensity and duration at depth.
