Leland Pop Eye Jig 1/16 2ct Black/Black
The Leland Pop Eye Jig in 1/16-ounce is a hand-tied crappie jig built to work in shallow structure and around vegetation where crappie hold tight. This 2-count pack gives you a pair of black-on-black jigs ready for panfish duty on lakes, ponds, and slow rivers. Hand-tied construction with extended feathers means each jig is assembled with care and material density that holds up through multiple fish and casting cycles—critical for a lure that'll see action all day.
What makes Pop Eye jigs distinctive is the feather design. Longer feathers create a natural flutter on the fall, giving crappie an enticing profile even when you're not actively working the rod. That lifelike movement without constant jigging motion means you can cover more water with less effort, and it means crappie see something worth eating rather than just a bare lead head. The 1/16-ounce weight is ideal for suspended or shallow-holding crappie, dropping slowly enough to stay in the strike zone longer.
Black jigs in black water or low-light conditions are a proven choice for triggering bites when crappie are cautious. Use these around brush piles, dock pilings, and weed edges where crappie congregate. Pair them with light spinning tackle and 4–6 lb monofilament or braided line for sensitivity and control in tight cover.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the best size line and rod for 1/16-ounce crappie jigs?
A light spinning setup with 4–6 lb monofilament or braided line paired with a sensitive 5–6 foot rod is ideal. Light line helps you feel the jig and detect soft bites, and the shorter rod gives you better accuracy in tight cover like brush and docks.
Should I jig these Pop Eye jigs or let them fall on their own?
The extended feathers are designed to create natural action on the fall without constant rod movement. Let the jig drop slowly on a semi-slack line so the feathers flutter. Small lifts and pauses work well, but you don't need to work it hard—often the easiest, most natural presentation is most effective.
Are black jigs the only color in this pack?
Yes, this 2-count pack contains two black jigs with black feathers. They're matched and ready to fish.
Can I use these for other panfish species besides crappie?
While these are designed and hand-tied for crappie, the light weight and feathered design will work for sunfish and other panfish as well. Presentation and location matter more than the species name on the packaging.
