Every angler dreams of finding the ideal lure that balances precision, durability, and performance.

Cipher Fishing’s Tungsten Round Ball Jig Head is setting new standards in fishing innovation. Developed by a team of seasoned anglers and industry experts, this jig head delivers professional-grade results to everyone—from weekend enthusiasts to elite competitors.

Ryan Chris is Cipher Fishing’s CEO. He explains the philosophy behind their products: “We want anglers to have the best. It’s about giving everyone access to the tools pros use to succeed.”

Why Tungsten Reigns Supreme

Tungsten stands out for its density and eco-friendliness, making it an essential material in modern jig heads. Cipher Fishing capitalizes on tungsten’s superior attributes to enhance every fishing experience.

“Tungsten is denser than lead, which means you can feel every structure, bump, and strike,” explains Cody Meyer, Cipher’s Director of Product Development and a professional angler with over 40 Top 10 finishes. “That sensitivity changes the game—especially in high-stakes tournaments.”

Its smaller profile also creates a more natural presentation. This approach can encourage cautious fish to bite. Tungsten’s nontoxic nature makes it a safer option for fisheries and ecosystems than lead.

What Sets Cipher Fishing Apart

Cipher Fishing didn’t settle for off-the-shelf solutions. The team, led by Meyer and President Cody Murray, painstakingly designed the Tungsten Round Ball Jig Head to address apparent gaps in the market.

Thanks to its premium PTFE-coated Kotae Hook, the jig head offers razor-sharp penetration and slicker, faster hook sets. Meyer highlights the benefits: “It’s not just about catching fish—about landing them reliably. Our hooks give you that edge.”

Cipher’s Zero-Gap Ball Head Design maximizes hook performance by eliminating wasted space between the line tie and jig head. This attention to detail helps with balanced bait movement.

The result? Soft plastics stay horizontal in the water for a more lifelike appearance. Engraved sizes on each jig head save anglers time and frustration by simplifying the selection process.

Proven By Professionals

Cipher Fishing’s commitment to quality extends beyond design—it’s been consistently tested and proven in real-world scenarios. A case in point? Meyer used the company’s products to qualify for the 2025 Bassmaster Elite Series, solidifying the brand’s credibility among elite anglers.

“When competing at this level, every detail matters,” Meyer says. “Cipher’s gear doesn’t just meet expectations—it exceeds them.”

Cipher products are designed to accommodate various techniques, from finesse fishing in pressured waters to slow-rolling swimbaits for natural presentations. The Tungsten Round Ball Jig Head is versatile for different applications.
