Yakima Bait Maxi Jig - Nightmare

The Yakima Bait Maxi Jig is a versatile steelhead and salmon fishing jig designed to deliver lifelike action and a durable finish during river drifts. Built with a beaded head, a two-part urethane overcoat and a pulsating marabou tail, the Maxi Jig excels across a range of currents and presentations. Available in sizes from 1/32 to 1/4 ounce, Yakima Bait jigs let anglers dial in subtle or aggressive presentations without sacrificing hook strength or color retention.

Key Features

• Durable Finish: Two-part urethane overcoat protects paint and provides a UV-bright finish for sustained color in green or stained river water.
• Action & Attraction: Pulsating marabou tail with flashabou creates natural movement and flash to entice salmon and steelhead.
• Premium Hook: Tied on an Owner 2x strong hook for superior hooksets and corrosion resistance.

Yakima Bait designed the Maxi Jig for anglers targeting steelhead and salmon in Pacific Northwest rivers, but its profile and weight options also perform well on trout and other freshwater species. Choose a lighter 1/32–1/16 oz jig for slow or technical presentations and a 1/8–1/4 oz for deeper, faster water. The compact profile fishes cleanly under beads or on traditional jig rigs and pairs well with ultralight to medium spinning or baitcasting setups.
