Description
The traditional cylinder shape head design, along with a 90° line tie of the 860 Heavy Wire Tube jig head, helps hold the tube jig horizontally in the water column, making it perfect for vertical jigging.
The 860 Heavy Wire gets its name from the Trokar 5/0 heavy wire, Pro-V bend hook it’s built on. The Trokar hook features a triangle, three-sided, machined point that is surgically sharpened. Because it is surgically sharpened, it requires less pressure to penetrate when setting the hook on a fish.
The Pro-V bend also has a lot less flex compared to a traditional round bend hook, making it ideal for holding hard fighting, jumping, and pulling fish.
Its sleek head design and longer hook shaft make it ideal for 4.5” to 6” tubes. These tube jig heads are also hand-poured and trimmed to ensure there are no burrs or sharp edges that can potentially tear up your soft plastics.
This is the perfect tube jig head for targeting large game fish in a vertical fishing situation. Whether you’re ice fishing, jigging from your boat, kayak, or belly boat, you’ll definitely want this tube jig head on your next fishing adventure.

Tools For Success:
Suggested Equipment:
- Rod: Medium to Heavy Power Rod with Moderate Fast Action. This rod style gives you precise control over the heavy lure’s action and the power needed to land your catches, while its responsiveness absorbs the shock when a big fish strikes, runs, and pulls.
- Line: 10-15 lb Fluorocarbon Line or 20-30 lb Braided Line with a 10-15 lb Fluorocarbon leader.
Hookset:
- Hook Point: Trokar Point This hook features a triangular, ultra-sharp cutting tip. For best results, use a pressure hookset to guide the barb past the fish’s bony mouth structure—just pull and reel, and it will cut into place. Avoid excessive yanking or snapping, as this can cause the point to slice out of the fish’s mouth.
*These recommendations are tailored to the weight, style, hook point, and target freshwater species these jigs were designed for. Use them as a starting guide and fine-tune as you get a feel for how the jig performs.
