Scent, Flash, and Movement in One Strip

Natural strip baits wash out, dry out, and fall apart after a few casts. Fat Cow Jig Strips are synthetic, durable, and stored in squid oil that provides lasting scent. The UV enhancement adds visibility beyond what natural strips offer. The split tail creates natural swimming movement that triggers feeding responses.

The combination of scent (squid oil), visual attraction (UV enhancement), and movement (split tail) makes these strips effective as a standalone bait or as a trailer on jigs and trolling rigs. Thread one onto a diamond jig treble hook and you add an entirely new dimension to the presentation.

Squid Oil Scent

Each strip is stored in squid oil, which is one of the most effective saltwater scent attractants. The scent trail disperses in the water and attracts fish from a distance. The synthetic material holds scent longer than natural strip baits.

UV Enhanced Finish

UV enhancement makes the strips visible in a wider range of light conditions than standard colored strips. The UV glow is particularly effective in deep water, overcast conditions, and at dawn/dusk when natural light is limited.

Split Tail Design

The split tail creates a natural swimming movement on the retrieve. Each tail fork moves independently, producing a lifelike action that static strip baits cannot match. The movement adds a visual trigger to the scent attraction.

How to Fish Fat Cow Jig Strips

1. Select color based on conditions: bright colors for stained water, natural colors for clear

2. Thread the strip onto a jig hook, treble hook, or trolling rig hook

3. Leave the split tail free to move naturally

4. Cast, jig, or troll with your preferred technique

5. The squid scent trail attracts fish from a distance

6. Replace when the strip shows wear or the scent diminishes

What are these used for? +
Tipping jigs (diamond jigs, bucktails, casting jigs), trolling rigs, and standalone strip bait presentations. The scent and movement add attraction to any jig or rig. Our lure guide covers strip bait applications.
What species? +
Mahi mahi, striped bass, bluefish, false albacore, sea bass, and most saltwater species that respond to strip baits. Particularly effective for mahi on trolling spreads. Our mahi guide covers strip bait presentations.
How long do they last? +
The synthetic material is significantly more durable than natural strip baits. A single strip can last through multiple fish. Replace when the split tail is damaged or the scent diminishes. Reseal the package between uses to preserve the squid oil scent.
What color for mahi? +
Chartreuse and pink are the most popular mahi colors. White works in clear water. Match the strip color to your lure or jig color for a cohesive presentation. Our mahi guide covers color selection.
Can I use these on the Fat Cow Epoxy Jig? +
Yes. Thread a jig strip onto the treble or single hook on the Fat Cow Epoxy Jig for added scent and movement. The combination of epoxy flash and scented strip is very effective.
Why are some colors more expensive? +
Chartreuse, white, and pink strips are $11.99. Red, black, and sand eel are $8.99. The price difference reflects the UV enhancement and material costs of the brighter colors.
