Buckeye G-Man Ballin Out 2 3/8 Black/Blue

The Buckeye G-Man Ballin Out 2 jig is a fully skirted finesse jig built on the proven design that helped BASS Elite angler Gerald Swindle earn angler of the year honors. If you fish brush, stick-ups, and dense weed growth—or any situation where a versatile, adaptable jig gets the job done—this 3/8-ounce jig should be in your box. The rounded ball head design eliminates the need to re-tie for every cover type, and the heavier, banded full skirt delivers the bulkier profile and robust action that bass keyed on a substantial presentation will eat.

What sets the Ballin Out 2 apart is its construction: a Gamakatsu hook—stout, razor-sharp, and purpose-built for serious hook-setting power—paired with a precisely trimmed fiber weed guard. That guard does the job it's supposed to do: slides through heavy cover without compromising your hook set. Whether you're pitching into matted vegetation, working around wooden structure, or probing the thickest grass, this jig won't bury when it counts.

The black and blue color scheme is a time-tested combination that produces across conditions and water types. This is finesse jig fishing without compromise—a single jig that adapts to your presentation instead of forcing you to tie on something different every cast. Built by anglers who understand that a simple, honest jig with quality hardware and smart design catches fish.

Frequently Asked Questions

What cover can I use this jig in?

The Ballin Out 2 is designed to work in brush, stick-ups, and dense weed growth. The rounded ball head and trimmed weed guard allow it to slide through heavy cover without hanging up, while the hook remains exposed enough to set effectively.

Will the weed guard prevent me from hooking fish?

No. The fiber weed guard is precisely trimmed to protect the jig in heavy cover while remaining thin enough that it won't interfere with hook sets when a fish bites.

What makes the heavy, banded skirt different from a standard finesse jig skirt?

The heavier, banded full skirt provides a bulkier profile and more robust action in the water. This appeals to bass that are feeding on a larger presentation while still maintaining the finesse jig's adaptability across different cover types.

What hook does it use?

The Ballin Out 2 features a Gamakatsu hook—known for being sharp and strong, designed to deliver the hook-setting power needed for solid penetration when you set the rod.
