The Nomad Ridgeback is designed with a unique angled head design to create an exciting new jig action. You can work it fast as a high-speed jig, or as a slow pitch jig with a flick of the rod tip. The head gives it an erratic sideways darting action - just give the rod a flick at the top, and the ridgeback will dart sideways and flutter before falling again. When you work it slow, it flutters before starting to sink - perfect for slow pitch jigging. It all adds up to a versatile package that fish just can't resist.
