860 Heavy Wire Tube Jig Head – 2pk (Fits 5″-7″ Tubes)

Description

The 860 Heavy Wire Tube Jig Head is the flagship product in the GSO Fishing lineup and our top-selling jig year after year. Originally developed to target trophy lake trout and other large game fish, it has become a trusted choice for anglers pursuing some of the biggest freshwater predators in North America.

Built around a premium Trokar 5/0 Heavy Wire Pro-V Bend hook, the 860 Heavy Wire combines exceptional hook penetration, holding power, and durability with a proven vertical jigging design. The traditional cylinder-style head and 90° line tie help keep tube jigs suspended horizontally in the water column, creating a natural presentation that excels when targeting larger fish.

The 860 Heavy Wire has accounted for thousands of pounds of lake trout, including the potential world record lake trout caught by Scott Enloe at Blue Mesa Reservoir, weighing over 70 pounds.

Developed by GSO Fishing, a Colorado-based guide service with two decades of experience and thousands of hours spent on the water alongside clients and fellow anglers.
