Fly Jigs for Murray Cod and Barramundi | Tying Materials and Components

About

Everything you need to tie big, deep-swimming jig flies for Murray cod and barramundi, in one place. This collection brings together heavy jig heads, strong hooks and trebles, split rings, terminal hardware and the fly tying materials that make a predator jig fly come alive in the water. A jig fly does something a standard fly pattern cannot. For a start it has enough weight in it, you can easily cast it with spin or baitcaster. The weighted head and the angled or 60 degree bend flip the hook point up, so the fly rides hook up and ducks through timber, snags and weed instead of fouling on it. That same head gives you a strong jigging action on the drop, which is exactly what triggers a cod or a barra sitting tight to structure. Get the weight right and the fly sinks fast, holds its shape and swims properly on the strip and the pause. Well-made fly jigs have bulk without unnecessary material added. They also pay particular attention to avoiding tangling by using stiffer materials to help prevent the shank or trailing hook from twisting around the jig head. Cod work asks a lot of your gear. These fish eat big and they pull hard around heavy timber, so the components here are chosen to handle real abrasion and real fish. Pair them with the right materials and you can build oversized profiles that cast well and won't fall apart after one session. Barra fly jigs want the same toughness with a bit more flash and movement, and you'll find what you need for both here. We stock the largest range of fly tying materials anywhere in Australia, so you're not stuck building a pattern around whatever happens to be on the shelf. Synthetics, natural fibres, flash, body tubing, eyes and the hardware to finish it off, all in the one spot.
