I'm looking to pick up a couple of the Northland Airplane Jig Magnum and Bionic Bucktail jigs for lakers and cusk (burbot). The problem I have is that I can't find them locally and don't know which size I need. They are listed by weights and I can't find any lengths. I'm looking for something in the 2 1/2 to 4 inch size. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I think Northland stopped making the large magnum size airplane jigs. I haven found any for a few years now. :P

The Magnum Northland Airplane Jigs are about 4 inches measured from head to bucktail end and comes in 1/2 and 1 oz. versions. The 1 oz. is more like 4 1/2 inches.

Thanks, that was what I was looking for, I'm kind of assuming the bucktails are a little smaller just based on the pictures. As for them not being made anymore, they are still on the northland site so I assume they are out there.

Northland totally discontinued the mini airplaine jigs. I like those, hopefully they remake better ones. I think the magnum airplane jigs are still in circulation, I still see them at the stores.
-
i just bought the small and big air plane jig the small they have to be out there it took me two weeks to find them.
good luck

The original style of Northland airplane is still out of production, but these 1oz replicas are being made.
