This week on the Alabama Freshwater Fishing Report, we’re talking with Steve “Graz” Graziano of Graz’s Guide Service and Hunter Suchsland of LS Lures about the release of their brand-new collaboration—the Graz’s Special jig. Graz has been fishing jigs since the early 1980s and had a color he could never quite get anyone to replicate until he found Hunter’s work. Together, they fine-tuned the design through multiple prototypes to create a hand-tied jig built with premium hooks, balanced skirt layering, and a color pattern that flat-out catches fish.

Hunter explains how the jig blends silicone and living rubber for a lifelike flare and contrast underwater, with amber, copper, and red tones that mimic crawfish, bream, and shiners across the country. Graz shares his on-the-water results, saying the jig’s quality and hand-tied skirt make it more durable and natural-looking than most others he’s used—and it’s already proven to be a big-fish bait.

The Graz’s Special will be available in every LS Lures head style, from football to swim jigs, all designed for anglers to customize to their own preferences. You can grab yours now at LS Lures and check them out on YouTube and social media for more behind-the-scenes looks.
