Increasingly mindful of species preservation, anglers are creating numerous catch-and-release areas, especially for trout. In these areas, it is often mandatory to use barbless jig heads. This allows fish to be safely released. To meet this need, Delalande offers a complete range of jig heads equipped with barbless hooks.

Whether by regulation or by choice for catch-and-release, many trout anglers use barbless jig heads. These hooks reduce injuries and allow safer fish release. Additionally, Delalande offers a range suitable for different types of lures and fishing styles.

Round Barbless Jig Head
The round head remains the simplest and most versatile shape. It is effective in linear fishing thanks to its stable descent and good penetration in the water. Moreover, the Delalande range offers different sizes and weights to optimize your results.

Football Barbless Jig Head
The football-shaped head is more elongated and promotes lure rolling. It also provides a stable bottom placement. Consequently, this shape is ideal for scraping techniques or slow animations over uneven bottoms.

Gliding Barbless Jig Head
The gliding, or darter, head has a triangular shape. This makes the lure swim erratically with small rod twitches. This technique is very effective for tempting wary trout. It also triggers bites in cold water or when fish activity is low.
