Grubber Jig Series
The Pumpkin Grubber is a variant design of my classic Booger Jig Series. The Grubber features a soft plastic grub tail, burnt orange attractor colors, and extra long webby hackle for that added movement. The Pumpkin Grubber is one of our best dirty water jigs ever. But don't take my word for it. Just take a look below at the results and what Lance Dunham of L.D. Guide Service has to say about our new jig:

The Pumpkin Grubber in action! That bass isn't big enough?
Oh... wait, the pumpkin grubber definitely catches bigger fish. Check this pig out!

This jig looks alive on the dead-drift, swing, bottom-bounce, or crawl. Use a stop-and-go retrieve to give the Grubber the darting motion of a nervous baitfish. From time to time, insert a long, fast tug into the retrieve, as if the baitfish had spotted a predator and decided to scram. Twitching the Grubber below the surface sometimes makes fish mistake it for a wounded minnow. Given the right time and place, each of those techniques will take fish. If one technique doesn't work, try another. Don't worry... the fish will tell you what they want!

10/11/10 - Per Lance Dunham: "I had 1 client with me today and we hit the mother load!! We used JJ's Jigs Pumpkin Grubber which is one of the best dirty water jigs he's made yet. Dave gave me 3 prototypes to try. I still have my first one and I'm up to fish #46 with it in the two days I've used it in the dirty water. Today with my client we boated 45 fish, however 21 of them were from 15" to 19". Here is the grub after 46 fish, still mostly intact."
Dave says: "I can't promise you a trophy bass on your first cast with a Pumpkin Grubber, but I can safely promise you will over time catch a variety of fish under a variety of conditions, often when nothing else is working. Also, you can tell a well-made jig when one is abused by over 45+ fish hook-ups and it's still holding up and working. That's a quality jig made with only the best materials and skills."
