Spro Erie Jighead 24g 5/0 Polished Gripper

Spro Erie Jighead Gripper 24g 5/0 Polished — Near-Vertical Soft Bait Presentation

The Spro Erie Jighead Gripper (24g, hook size 5/0, polished finish) is a purpose-built lead jig head for predator fishing with soft baits, designed to stand your lure almost upright on the bottom for irresistible takes from pike and zander.

Near-Vertical Bottom Stance

The Gripper's distinctive angular head shape causes the soft bait to tilt nearly vertical after sinking, lifting the tail and angling the hook point upward. This posture makes it easy for predators to inhale the lure cleanly, and when the hook sets it finds purchase in the hard mouth of even large pike or zander without resistance.

Gamakatsu Hook for Reliable Hookups

Fitted with a sharp, robust Gamakatsu jig hook in size 5/0, this head handles hard-fighting fish with confidence. The hook's strength and point retention ensure solid hooksets and secure landings, even on specimen-sized fish in fast currents or at depth.

Choose the Right Variant

The Erie Jighead Gripper is available in two weights, both in polished (uncoated lead) finish with a 5/0 hook. Match the weight to your water depth, current speed, and soft bait size:

• Spro Erie Jighead Gripper — 24g, 5/0, Polished, Gamakatsu Hook: Ideal for mid-depth rivers with moderate to strong current, large lakes, and soft baits up to 12–15 cm targeting zander and pike. Well-suited to the lazy/stationary (Faulenzermethode) presentation.

• Spro Erie Jighead Gripper — 28g, 5/0, Polished, Jig Hook: Best for deep water, very strong currents, or when you need to stay on the bottom fast with heavier or larger soft baits.
