Trent Miller (aka Stripaholic) designed them, RSR Lures builds them, and now they are now available to everyone. These jig-heads are designed to be used in tandem, with the heavier 1 ounce tied to the bottom of the ¾ ounce (about 18 inches below). As with all RSR Lures jig-heads, we are using the Eagle Claw, 635 Series, Saltwater Grade, forged hooks. The ¾ ounce has a size 3/0 and the 1 ounce is fitted with a 4/0. The 3-D holographic eyes are slightly recessed to protect them from being dislodged. Available in Chartreuse or White, high gloss powder coated finish.

Those look great! Have found some elsewhere but hook was definitely not stout enough. Will be putting in an order soon.

About 8 years ago Stripershack and I started making these. Through alot of trial and error several things became apparent. Our mold would not support a strong enough hook, the 3D eyes were exposed enough that line from other poles would pop the eyes off, and I just wanted the weight to be alittle heavier on windy days. So Phillip(RSR) and I sat down to to discuss producing the ultimate deadsticking jighead. Phillip was able to address every issue I threw at him. 1. Hooks on both jigheads are strong enough so when your on a great bite and you get your fish to the boat you can just grab the jighead and pull the fish in... no net needed. 2. The 3D eyes are recessed so they stay on. contin...

3. The hooks are long shank hooks to give you a better chance to stick those short striking fish. 4. With the soft plastic holder being on bottom, your assassin shouldn't split. I had that issue with what I was making. Ways to use these... I typically have half of my rods rigged with tandam and the other half rigged with the single 1oz jighead. When rigging tandem the bottom jighead leader is 20lb test(or braid for those that prefer braid)so you can land 2 8+lb fish. If you get on big fish use single rigs. Tandem rigs just tend to catch more fish partly because your covering more water. But also because you can put different colors/sizes on each to find what they want that day. Some days 3 inch assassin is best. Contin....

One reason I've preferred this style is your mimicking glass minnows, a preferred cold water food source. Big eyes, on any artificial, can do nothing but help your chances at drawing a predatory response.

Trent " deadsticking" Miller knows the mechanics behind the madness of building these jig heads. When I shop on line, I try to mimic what he builds from scratch. These rsr jig heads will flat catch fish. The "aspirin eye" works wonders on the lakes that I fish, Graham, PK and Bporte. The tandem is the only way to go for me as the extra weight keeps the lure in the target zone or helps u find it when the water is cold and the extra two feet up or down makes a difference.
