Finally, there's a lighter, better alternative to traditional bottom fishing methods and jigs. Tapping into a fish's psyche, the innovative Decoy Jig from Barefoot Fishing imitates a crab with a fish that looks just too good to resist. 

The revolutionary Decoy Jig comes rigged with a doubled, #250 Power Pro spectra fiber stinger hook, attaching a short-shank 7/0 hook. A red silicone skirt gives the jig a strong crab-like appearance. Reddish brown, white and chartreuse colors will also be available soon. For detailed photos, videos, recommendations and directions on tying the ultimate stinger rig, visit http://barefootfishing.net/blog.

Perfect for grouper, snapper and other bottom dwellers, the state-of-the-art Decoy Jig is balanced to resist snags.  A loop knot enables it to crawl over rocky sea floors. Since crabs don't jump, anglers shouldn't jig this jig, but instead just keep it along the bottom. 

The advanced Decoy Jig from Barefoot Fishing has a suggested retail price of just $9.99. Barefoot Fishing donates 5% of all proceeds to Fish For Tomorrow, a marine habitat restoration program.
