visualize an egg with its pointy side up. the nail is just below the center point facing up at 45 degrees.

Here's a couple of screw eye eggs, the hook hanger is a piece of stainless wire stuck in a drill hole....

Back Beach Jake made me one a few years ago.


Great for delivering light baits out into the surf or anywhere. Seaworms, clams, sandeels,teasers, small rubber to deadstick or twitch.

Egg is aerodynamic/concentrated /focussed weight.

Good health and family

Tony;
Hang the jig on it when you cast.. it falls off when it splashes... more aerio-dynamical (in my besy GWB voice)

the second spot we fished they do well with them... keeps the jig off the bottom....
