“The New Stanley Swimming Jig is a jig with spinnerbait vibration and crankbait versatility,”
Stanley said. “A bait for all depths, people can run it two inches below the surface or along the
bottom in deep water by varying the speed of retrieve or the angle of the rod.”
Equipped with a weed guard and a rattle, the new Stanley Swimming Jig incorporates a front
shaker (or chatter) blade. With the blade in front, it somewhat resembles an in-line spinner, but
the blade doesn’t revolve around a central wire. Instead, the flat blade, more like a crankbait lip,
creates wobbling that looks like “a whole lot of shaking going on.”
“The blade shakes the whole bait,” Stanley said. “It makes the bait wobble back and forth,
moving a lot of water and giving out a tremendous amount of vibration. People could configure
it in any number of different ways just by changing or removing the trailers. With a large worm
as a trailer, it looks like a snake running through the water. It works great with a pork frog, a
split-tail or a curly tail grub.”
In different configurations, anglers can use the new Stanley Swimming Jig in many different
ways. Waked just beneath the surface, it attracts bass feeding in the shallows. Let it drop and it
falls to the bottom like a dying baitfish. People can also slow-roll it along the bottom to catch fish
from the surface to the depths.
“If someone held a rod high and ran a 3/8-ounce jig medium fast, it would run about three inches
below the surface,” Stanley explained. “Lowering the rod or slowing the retrieve makes it run
deeper. If the angler stops reeling, the bait will sink to the bottom. Dropping the rod tip, a
person could run it at a slow to medium speed just off the bottom.”
Protected by the weed guard, the new Stanley Swimming Jig can go where few spinnerbaits or
crankbaits can venture, into the lair of the beast. Anglers can run these baits through lily pad
patches or fallen trees. They can work them through sunken brush piles where lunkers lurk.
“Using it with a weed guard, people can throw it around the grass, through the grass or in the
brush piles,” Stanley said. “It runs through branches of fallen trees or around stumps and rocks,
anywhere. Someone could drop it next to stumps and let it fall to the bottom.”
During early spring, the jig could tempt bass that congregate off the ends of points or around
deep rock piles, ledges, humps or other deep cover. Then, an angler throwing a new Stanley
Swimming Jig could follow creek channels as bass move toward shore. In the shallows, run
these baits through the thickest cover like a weedless crankbait or just under the surface. From
top to bottom, it works in any application or situation.
“People can work it in many different ways,” Stanley said. “It runs through the lily pads, clicking
back and forth. When the blade contacts vegetation, it quits moving. As soon as it leaves the
grass, the jig starts moving again. When the bait runs across deep holes in vegetation, an
angler can drop it to the bottom or vertically jig it next to standing timber or drop-off edges to
find bass in deep holes.”
The new Stanley Swimming Jig comes in three sizes, 1/4, 3/8 and 1/2 ounce. It also comes in 10
proven fish-catching colors with either nickel or gold blades. If people wish, they can change
trailers to make infinite color combinations.

News release: New Stanley Swim Jig
It shakes, rattles and rolls, but more importantly, it
catches fish from top to bottom. With decades of jig
designing experience in his wake, legendary lure
maker and Lonnie Stanley did it again. He turned an
ordinary swimming jig into an extraordinarily versatile
bait that duplicates the enticing action of a crankbait,
the vibration of a spinnerbait and the weedless
penetration of a jig.
