Scrounger head fishing is one of the most over looked strategies in the bass fishing world.
They are incredibly unique and most importantly, they catch tons of bass.
As with anything fishing related, there are tons of different scrounger heads sold by tons of different companies.
Here are the best scrounger head jigs that you can get.
There are a number of scrounger head jigs out there. These 5 are the highest quality and are each very unique, offering slightly different presentations and applications.
Combining quality and inventive design, the Pulse Fish Lures Pulse Jig delivers a heavy vibration that is sure to grab the attention of big fish.
Designed with a customized head, the Pulse Fish Lures Pulse Jig features a clear plastic collar that catches water and creates a hard-pounding vibration.
Along the shank of the hook, the Pulse Fish Lures Pulse Jig features a square keeper that locks soft plastics firmly in-place.
Perfect for targeting schooling and suspending fish, the Pulse Fish Lures Pulse Jig delivers a look and an action that will push the capacity of your livewell.
The ultimate match-the-hatch fishing lure, now in a larger size, the Fish Head Dude is so realistic it does everything but breathe water.
An ideal schooling bait when the fish are feeding on small baitfish, it also makes a great search tool for those hard to find bass, crappie, bluegill, smallmouth, walleye, etc.
Vitually weedless as well, thanks to its fluorocarbon urethane bill, you can fish it through lay-downs, rock, wood and grass.
With the shake of a shallow crank and the look of a genuine baitfish – how can bass resist?
Made with a super sharp Mustad hook, the Fish Head Dude is designed for use with any fluke-style soft plastic.
The Luck E Strike Scrounger is easy to fish, practically snag-free. For professional use, or the weekend angler.
The Scrounger creates vibration and an incredible realistic action. Rig your favorite plastic baitfish, shad, crawdad or grub, etc.
The Luck E Strike Srounger works on ALL species of gamefish!
The short bill style allows the bait to be worked fast, burned over shallow structure or flats, without washing out.
The medium bill can be worked at a range of speeds. The long bill can be fished deeper, and at slower speeds than the medium or short bill without sacrificing action.
Designed to impart an irresistible baitfish action to your favorite fluke or swimbait, the Vike Tungsten Scrounger Jig features a 97% tungsten head, which is much denser than a standard lead head to provide a more compact profile.
The harder tungsten material also allows for increased sensitivity as well.
The Scrounger Jig’s bill is made from a fluorocarbon urethane material, which reflects less light than traditional scroungers with plastic bills, allowing it to excel in ultra clear water conditions and provide a more natural presentation.
Equipped with a rubber skirt that provides a lifelike flowing action, the skirt is also hand-tied to ensure maximum flaring and ensure the skirt material is equally distributed as well.
Armed with a Mustad Ultra Point Hook, the Vike Tungsten Scrounger Jig will give anglers an extra edge over their tournament competition.
A great search tool for year-round applications, the Longas Baits Funnel Jig Head produces an action that consistently puts fish in the boat and is simply addicting to fish.
Built with an exclusive concave silicone plastic lip that goes around the entire jighead, the Longas Baits Funnel Jig Head pulls against the water, creating resistance during a steady retrieve, which produces huge turbulence and vibrations that cause your trailer to swim erratically side-to-side.
They also feature a razor-sharp Gamakatsu hook for a superior hook up ratio and a barbed keeper that will hold your trailer securely in place.
Finished with a detailed hand-painted paint job, the Longas Baits Funnel Jig Head is a unique jighead that gives your baits a totally new action and presentation.
I would say that at least 80% of the time I am fishing a scrounger, it is rigged up with a minnow style bait as the trailer.
And this is what the scrounger head was designed for. A realistic minnow bait that shimmies and shakes through the water.
And when I say “minnow”, I am talking about straight or fork tail baits that don’t have any action on their own.
Paddle tail or curl tail swimbaits will cause the bait to have too much action, too much resistance, and too much vibration.
You lose the beauty of simplicity and realism. Actionless minnow baits are by far the best and most used type of plastic for scrounger head fishing.
Although the scrounger was made to fish minnow baits, I take a bit of liberty and have some fun with it.
A small finesse worm looks amazing on a scrounger jig head. The worm swims and bends around with a tremendous amount of action and visual attraction.
But since the worm is straight tailed, there is no extra resistance and vibration.
The 20% of the time that I rig up a worm on the scrounger head is almost always in very shallow water.
I fish in on or just the bottom and bounce it off shallow rocks or wood. It looks just like a small eel, leech, or worm. And it definitely gets bit.
The scrounger head jigs highlighted in this exploration represent the pinnacle of innovation and effectiveness in angling.
Whether you’re targeting schooling fish or seeking out elusive trophies, these jigs offer a spectrum of presentations and applications to suit various fishing scenarios.
From the heavy vibrations of the Pulse Fish Lures Pulse Jig to the lifelike action of the Longas Baits Funnel Jig Head, each scrounger head brings its own allure to the water, enhancing your chances of a successful day on the lake or river.
