1/0 Jig-Biki Crystal Teaser (2-Dropper) Pack of 4 Rigs

The Hogy Jig-Biki Crystal Teaser Rig is the system component that turns every groundfish jig into a multi-level presentation. Inspired by the traditional sabiki rig but beefed up for real groundfish — cod, haddock, sea bass, tog, and fluke — the Jig-Biki sits above your primary jig and creates a curtain of micro-teasers that imitate the small crabs, shrimp, and baitfish found in nearly every groundfish stomach.

In tactical groundfishing, teasers are not optional — they’re a core component of the system. The Jig-Biki converts fish that lift to inspect but won’t commit to the bottom lure. It automates success: micro teasers dance with every boat rock, every wave, every lift and fall, even when the angler isn’t actively jigging. It’s the difference between one fish per drop and doubles or triples.

• Micro Crab Imitation:

How many times have you found small crabs in the stomachs of just about every type of groundfish? The Jig-Biki was built on that discovery. Olive-colored teaser hair with pink and crystal flash creates a lifelike crustacean profile that matches the micro forage groundfish eat most. The presentation is small enough to match the hatch but rigged on hooks strong enough for big fish.

• Automated Presentation:

Micro teasers dance with each boat rock, each wave, each lift and fall. Your crew can drop the ball with jigging technique, but the Jig-Biki takes care of the rest. The teasers fire continuously with natural boat motion, keeping the presentation alive even when the rod is sitting in the holder.

• Two-Level Presentation:

The 2-dropper design spaces teasers above the primary jig, capturing fish that lift to inspect but don’t commit to the bottom lure. This is the critical conversion zone — fish see the bottom jig, rise to investigate, and intercept the teaser on the way up. The result is doubles, triples, and dramatically improved hookup efficiency.

• System Integration:

The Jig-Biki seamlessly integrates with the entire Hogy groundfish system. The olive-colored teaser hair matches the assist hooks on Squinnow Jigs, Groundfish Biki Jigs, and Sand Eel Jigs, creating a cohesive visual presentation from top to bottom. Attach to any jig — the rig is universal.

• Baitless Fishing, Built In:

The Jig-Biki is designed to fish effectively without bait. The lifelike teaser action mimics small prey naturally, reducing dependence on bait and eliminating the variable of bait getting stripped. When used alongside bait, the scented teasers remain effective long after the bait is gone.

• VMC Teaser Hooks:

Sharp, strong, and designed for the quick, light strikes that characterize groundfish feeding. Sized to match the micro profile of the teasers while maintaining the strength to handle cod, haddock, and large sea bass.

• Slow-Pitch Jigging (Primary):

- Drop the rig and jig to the bottom with controlled line tension

- Slow, deliberate lift of the rod tip (a few feet), followed by a pause

- The teasers flutter naturally as the rig drops back down

- Maintain tension during the pause — many strikes come on the drop

- Adjust tempo based on water temperature: slower in cold water, moderate when fish are active

- Keep the rig near bottom where groundfish feed

• Passive Soak / Dead Stick:

- Rod in the holder, jig on bottom

- Natural boat rock pulses the teasers continuously

- The Jig-Biki automates the presentation while you attend to other rods

- Effective in calm conditions, cold water, or when fish are sluggish

- Often produces hookups on the teaser while the angler is focused elsewhere

• Hi-Lo Rig Upgrade:

- Attach the Jig-Biki above a jig and tip the jig with bait (crab, squid, clam, worm)

- If bait gets stolen, the scented teasers remain fishing

- Creates a best-of-both-worlds presentation: bait attraction plus teaser conversion

- Popular with anglers transitioning from bait-based to baitless groundfishing

• Multi-Drop Coverage:

- Run 1–3 Jig-Biki rigs above the primary jig depending on depth and current

- Multiple rigs create a vertical curtain of teasers covering more of the water column

- Especially effective in deeper water where fish hold at different levels above structure

- Often means doubles or triples on one drop

• Environmental Factors (E)

- Any depth from 15–400’ where groundfish are present

- Slow to strong current — the rig adapts because the teasers are light and responsive

- Rock, wreck, gravel, shell, and mixed bottom

- Cold water or warm water — the presentation scales with tempo, not hardware

- Both inshore structure and offshore banks

Why Jig-Biki: The rig is depth-independent and current-independent. It works everywhere the primary jig works, adding a second level of presentation without adding weight or complexity.

• Observational Factors (O):

- Fish present but not committing to the bottom jig

- Short strikes and follows — fish lifting to inspect

- Crabs, shrimp, or micro-bait visible in the system

- Multiple species holding at different levels above structure

- Bait has been stripped from the jig and fish are still around

- High fish density where multi-hookup potential exists

Why Jig-Biki: The Jig-Biki converts interest into hookups. It captures the fish that see the bottom jig but commit to the teaser instead. In competitive multi-species scenarios, it consistently produces the highest numbers.

• Structure + Approach (S + A):

- Wrecks and artificial reefs (sea bass, scup, cod)

- Rock piles and boulder fields (tog, sea bass)

- Gravel bottoms and offshore banks (haddock, cod)

- Sand-to-structure transitions (fluke)

- Deep ledge systems (cod, pollock, halibut)

Approach Logic: Attach the Jig-Biki to your primary jig before the drop. Match hook size and leader to the depth and species. The rig rides above the jig naturally — no adjustment or tuning needed. Fish the same techniques you’d fish without it; the Jig-Biki adds coverage without changing your approach.

• Techniques (T):

- Slow-Pitch Jigging — Default technique; teasers flutter on the lift and drop

- Passive Soak — Boat rock does the work; automates presentation

- Hi-Lo Upgrade — Teasers plus bait on the main jig; scent backup when bait is gone

- Multi-Drop — Stacked rigs for vertical curtain coverage in deep water

Why Jig-Biki: The Jig-Biki is the only component in the groundfish system that goes in front of everything else. It doesn’t replace your jig — it amplifies it. Different techniques don’t require different teasers. One rig, every scenario.
