HELPFUL TIP:
The specially designed drift jig, Gapen’s female
hellgrammite, best imitates a dislodged bottom
dweller which is swept away by current flow
and cast rapidly downstream.

hoW IT Works: Refer to the diagram. Cast slightly
upstream “A” to a spot directly above the fish holding area
you’ve selected. Begin retrieve by holding rod tip high
(never lower it after cast), slowly lowering it to comfortable
retrieving position as lure departs downstream. At this
moment, the boat handler has placed the motor and craft
in a ‘slip’ mode (boat backs slowly downstream while still in forward
thrust). As the boat and fishermen slowly back downstream and the lure is propelled by current in a
similar direction, the angler continues to hold rod tip high, lowering every so often as current and
depth at lure position decreases/increases and deepens/shallows. At point “B”, the lure is eased
around an exposed and submerged rock pile by reeling in the appropriate amount of line, then allowing
it to drift again. At point “C”, with the boat travel no longer keeping up with lure drift, the angler
retrieves his lure rapidly to the boat.

Why IT Works: Special head design of this jig makes it drift in a proper fashion. Rubber legs
best represent the larger female hellgrammite while body design enhances both of these factors.
Where IT Works: The Hellgrammite Drift Jig works best in shallow, 2 to 6 foot, rocky flat
areas in river systems where current flow exceeds 2.5 miles an hour. It works best in lakes on shallow
rocky island/shoreline reefs which are shallow in nature.
