The Pig Piglet Shad is an addition to The Pig family. This 10 cm long soft bait is primarily designed for jig fishing for perch but is far from a "reyellowar" soft bait. It has many prominent and outstanding features that make it special. Piglet Shad is molded in rubber of two different densities where the lower half of the bait is salt-impregnated. Salt sinks faster, causing Piglet Shad to sink belly first and have a more stable movement in the water. The paddle tail on Piglet Shad gives the bait a subtle "bellyflash." If you prefer a more stable, gliding movement without "bellyflash," trim the tail at the top and bottom with scissors. It also has a swimming action created by the jointed section in the tail part. Piglet Shad is grooved on both the back and belly for easy rigging and more effective hooking with an offset hook for Texas and Carolina rigging. A size 3/0 offset hook fits perfectly. Piglet Shad can be used with a traditional jig head, and we recommend hook sizes 4/0 or 5/0. Piglet Shad is manufactured in an environmentally friendly production with minimal ecological footprint. The PVC plastic used is odorless and free from phthalates.

Fish species
Here, we’ve categorized the products based on which fish you want to hook. We’ve relied on what manufacturers specify, but also on experience of what usually works. The list could almost be endless, and many things work for more species than we’ve listed, so don’t be afraid to experiment.

Family
Refers to which product family the product belongs to. In many cases, there are matching reels and rods within the same product family. These items are designed to work together.
Here’s a simple guide for those wondering which jig heads with hooks fit which jig lengths. What determines the jig head to use is the hook size, as it decides where on the jig body the hook exits. Then you can choose different weights for the jig head depending on how deep you want the jig to go, or shapes that suit different fishing methods better.
There are also other types of jig heads without hooks, called 'Screw-In-Heads,' often used in pike fishing, where the smallest sizes fit jigs from about 13-14 cm and up.
Refers to which type of fishing the product is intended for.
Example: A spinning reel is intended for the spin fishing method.

Hook size (multi)
Hook size is denoted by a number. The higher the number, the smaller the hook. Size 30 is a tiny hook, 4 is significantly larger. If there’s a zero after, e.g., 2/0, it’s even bigger. The higher the number before the zero, the larger the hook. We have a range from the smallest hook, size 30, to our largest, 18/0.
