What This Jig Is

The MATB “Go To” is your everyday tournament jig.
When you don’t know exactly what they want — but you know they’re eating craws — this is what you tie on.

It’s built to:

• Match molting crawfish

• Blend into green vegetation

• Add just enough red/orange pop to trigger reaction bites

• Work in clear, stained, or slightly dirty water

This is the one that stays tied on all day.

Where To Fish It (NJ & PA Specific)

This jig shines in:

• Van Sciver Lake

• Morrisville / Manor Lakes

• Delaware River backwaters

• Pressured suburban ponds

• Shallow laydowns and dock rows

• Rock transitions with scattered grass

Especially effective when:

• Water temps are 48–72°

• Bass are keyed on crawfish

• Fish are pressured and won’t commit to loud colors

Why This Color Works

Green Pumpkin Black Flake

• The most consistent craw imitation in NJ & PA

• Matches bluegill and small bottom forage

• Natural under pressure

Hot Craw Black Flake

• Mimics molting red/orange craw claws

• Creates a strike trigger without overpowering profile

• Shows up in stained water without looking unnatural

Together:
You get a natural body with a subtle aggression trigger.

It’s balanced.
It’s confident.
It catches both largemouth and smallmouth.
