Tennessee pro Jason Lambert has one of the most impressive records where he racked up 101 pounds, 9 ounces at an FLW Tour event on Kentucky Lake in 2018, the biggest four-day weight total in that organization’s history. At 2018’s FLW Tour at Kentucky Lake, professional angler Jason Lambert walked away a champion thanks to the Jerky J and a modified 1-ounce version of a scrounger jig.
Scroungers are just jig heads featuring a flexible plastic bill that should be easy to bend by hand. Other than having a quality hook, the bill material is the most important aspect of a scrounger. There are several scroungers available on the market, but some bill materials provide superior action and performance.
