Gamakatsu Tungsten Hybrid Swing Head

Tacoma, Washington – Swing Head jigs give anglers another way to target bass on an offshore structure. Gamakatsu’s new feature-packed Tungsten Hybrid Swing Head proves that not all swing heads are created equal. With thoughtful design and quality manufacturing, Gamakatsu’s hybrid head design combines the snag resistance of a football head and the action of the cobra-style head.

The Tungsten Hybrid Swing Head creates a natural-looking, slithering action that draws significant attention from nearby bass. The head design unites the benefits of both a cobra head for passing through grass and a football head for snag resistance on a hard bottom. Ideal for slow-swimming retrieves, the head increases the action of any plastic bait along the bottom. The Tungsten Hybrid Swing Head features a stealthy smoke-colored finish that blends in with plastics and your lure’s surroundings to generate more strikes. The weight size is stamped into the side of each weight, making it easy to identify when it’s time to make a change.

The precision wire harness tuned to exacting tolerances and a recessed line tie helps it stay weedless. The use of tungsten keeps it compact and offers increased sensitivity. The wire harness offers easy rigging with a variety of Gamakatsu hooks. Increased action, design versatility, toughness and maximum usefulness are found in the new Tungsten Hybrid Swing Head from Gamakatsu.
