CYCLOPS JIGS
Cyclops Jigs were born out of a passionate desire to create the most effective and innovative fishing lures on the market. The story begins with a fisherman, who spent countless hours on the water, perfecting his craft and observing the subtle behavior of fish as they hunted for their next meal. One thing stood out to him above all: the predatory fish always targeted the wounded and vulnerable.
