Predax Fishing MSM Jig Heads 17g 2/0

Predax Fishing MSM Jig Heads 17g 2/0 — Secure Softbait Hold at Depth

The Predax MSM (Molded Shank Mount) jig head with bead collar is built for medium-to-large softbaits that need a firm, reliable anchor point — delivering consistent action on every retrieve.

Lead Bead Collar for a Rock-Solid Bait Mount

The defining feature of this jig head is the molded lead bead (Wulst) on the hook shank. When rigging a softbait with a firmer rubber compound, the bead grips into the body of the lure and prevents it from sliding down the hook during casts and strikes. At 17g, this variant cuts through current and reaches the strike zone quickly without sacrificing bait presentation.

Sharp Hook Built for Positive Hooksets

The 2/0 hook is precision-ground for exceptional out-of-the-box sharpness. Paired with the 17g head, it is well matched to softbaits from approximately 8–12 cm — a size range that covers many classic paddle tails and shads used for perch, pike, zander, and similar predators. The hook gap remains clear of the lead bead, ensuring the point is unobstructed and ready to set on contact.

Choose the Right Variant

All variants share the same bead-collar jig head design. Match weight and hook size to your target species, water depth, and bait size. The bead collar is most effective on hook sizes 1/0 and larger, where the shank length allows the bead to grip without covering the gape.
