Groundfish Biki Jig Bundle 3/0 1oz (4pc)

The unique Groundfish Biki-Jig combines the effectiveness of the Jig-Biki Teaser System with a unique flat profiled groundfish style jig head paired with the Heavy Duty VMC Barbarian Jig Hook.

• Integrated Biki Teaser System:

The Biki Jig merges the proven Jig-Biki Teaser platform directly into the jig itself. The skirted teaser pulses naturally on every lift and fall, creating a two-level visual trigger — the jig's crab-pattern body draws attention on the bottom, while the Biki skirt fires up fish that lift to inspect. When your crab or strip bait is gone, the scent-retaining teaser keeps you in the game.

• Flat-Profiled Head — Upright Sit, Every Time:

The teardrop-shaped, flat-profiled head is designed to lay the jig perfectly on bottom with the hook sitting upright. This is critical for groundfish that feed by inspecting and picking — the hook is always in position for clean penetration, and the jig doesn't roll or tip on uneven bottom.

• No Bait Required:

The Biki Jig is designed to fish effectively without bait, removing a major variable from the system. The combination of crab-pattern paint, glow accents, and Biki teaser skirt provides enough visual presence and scent retention to trigger strikes on its own. Tipping with crabs or squid strips is optional and species-dependent, but never required.

• VMC Barbarian Jig Hook (3X Heavy Duty):

The sharpest and stoutest inshore jig hook available. Built to handle hard-crunching tautog and sea bass without bending, dulling, or failure. The same Barbarian platform used across the Hogy system.

• Hand-Painted Crab Pattern with Glow:

Imitative crustacean finish with glow visibility accents. Designed to match the most common forage found in groundfish stomachs — small crabs and shrimp. The glow provides visibility in low-light, deep-water, and dirty-water conditions without relying on flash.

• Slow Tap Jigging (Primary):

- Drop to bottom and maintain contact

- Use a slow, rhythmic tapping motion to bounce the jig along the bottom. Each tap pulses the Biki skirt, creating a breathing effect

- Covers ground on a drift while keeping the jig in the strike zone

- The default technique for sea bass, scup, and general groundfish

• Sit and Thump (Tautog Specialty):

- Let the jig sit on bottom for extended periods

- Intermittent thumps — sharp, short lifts that slam the flat head back into the bottom

- Mimics crabs sitting on rocks with occasional movement

- The Biki skirt fires with every boat rock, keeping the presentation alive between thumps

- Deadly for tautog holding tight to rock, boulder, and ledge structure

- Can be enhanced by tipping with crab or squid strip, but not required

• Lift and Fall:

- Smooth lift to roughly 11 o'clock, controlled fall back to 9 o'clock

- The Biki skirt flares on the lift and compresses on the drop

- Effective when fish are willing to rise slightly off bottom

- Works well for sea bass feeding just above structure

- Slightly more aggressive than tap jigging — use when fish are active

• Drop and Drag:

- Cast up-current or up-drift and let the jig settle

- Slow drag across sand, shell, and mixed bottom

- The flat head plows along the bottom, kicking up sediment

- Effective for fluke sitting tight to edges and transitions

- Add small bumps during the drag to trigger ambush strikes

• Dead Stick:

- No angler input — the jig sits on bottom and the Biki skirt does the work

- Natural boat motion pulses the teaser continuously

- Effective in very cold water when fish are sluggish and won't chase

- Common in early-season tautog scenarios (water temps in the 40s)

- Often produces when active jigging fails

Inshore Groundfish Applications

• Environmental Factors (E):

- Shallow to moderate depth (15–100')

- Slow to moderate current where bottom contact can be maintained

- Rock, boulder, wreck, shell, and hard-bottom structure

- Mixed bottom with sand-to-rock transitions

- Cold water conditions where fish are sluggish and feeding deliberately

- Clear to moderately dirty water

Why Biki Jig: The flat head maintains bottom contact in slow-to-moderate current. The Biki skirt fires even when the angler isn't actively jigging, keeping the presentation alive in conditions where fish need time to commit.

• Observational Factors (O):

- Fish pinned tight to bottom and feeding deliberately

- Subtle taps and short strikes — fish inspecting but not committing

- Crabs, shrimp, or crustacean forage visible in the system

- Fish holding on specific structure pieces rather than roaming

- Situations where bait has been picked clean and bare jigs aren't producing

Why Biki Jig: The crab-pattern body and Biki teaser match the forage profile groundfish eat most often. The scent-retaining skirt keeps producing when bait is gone. Designed for fish that pick and inspect, not chase.

• Structure + Approach (S + A):

- Rock piles, boulder fields, and ledges (tautog, sea bass)

- Wrecks and artificial reefs (sea bass, scup)

- Shell beds and hard-bottom patches (scup)

- Sand-to-rock transitions and edges (fluke)

- Bridge pilings, jetties, and nearshore structure

Approach Logic: Use chart plotter or Navionics to identify structure. Line up drifts to cross productive bottom. Drop the Biki Jig to the bottom and maintain contact through the drift. The flat head and upright hook orientation mean the jig is always fishing correctly, even when the drift pulls it across uneven terrain.

• Techniques (T):

- Slow Tap Jigging — Default bottom technique for coverage and bite detection

- Sit and Thump — Tog specialty; mimics crabs on rocks

- Lift and Fall — Engages fish willing to rise slightly off bottom

- Drop and Drag — Fluke technique; covers sand-to-structure edges

- Dead Stick — Cold-water, low-energy situations; boat rock does the work

Why Biki Jig: The Biki Jig prioritizes feel and placement over speed or flash. Different techniques — not different jigs — adapt the same tool to species behavior. The integrated teaser means every technique is a two-level presentation, increasing hookup efficiency without adding complexity.
