Northland Gum Drop Floater
84948-PJ1
Catches walleyes, perch, jumbo panfish, bass and trout. Floats live bait over moss, weeds and rocky bottom areas. Tip with a leech, minnow or nightcrawler. A 24- to 48-inch leader between Gum-Drop® Floater and sinker is typically sufficient. However, a 12- to 24-inch leader is better in stained water, while 60 to 84 inches may be necessary in clear water.

Northland identifies these jigs by hook size. Available hook sizes include #4, #2, and #1/0.
Yes, the size 1 hook is generally appropriate for walleyes. For larger live baits like nightcrawlers and minnows, a #1/0 hook is recommended for a better hook-up ratio. A #2 hook is a versatile option for larger live baits or when a slightly smaller hook than a #1/0 is desired. For smaller baits like worms or grubs, or for walleye on jigs when fish are less active, a #4 hook is best suited.
