Salt Wrecks Cheap Gear. It Won't Wreck This.
Saltwater doesn't forgive weak hardware — it finds every flaw and eats through it. Here's what that costs you, and how Ebb N Flow gear is built to avoid it.
Gear That Isn't Built for Salt
- Hooks and hardware rust or pit after a handful of trips in salt or brackish water
- Cheap jig heads chip, roll, or lose their action after one good fish
- Separate setups needed for inshore vs. freshwater means more gear to buy and haul
- Soft plastics that tear or blow out after a single strike
Money and Fish, Lost to Bad Gear
- Re-buying the same cheap jig heads trip after trip instead of once
- Missed hooksets from dull, rusted points at the worst possible moment
- Hauling two tackle boxes — one for salt, one for fresh
- Time wasted re-rigging instead of fishing
Gear Engineered to Handle It
- Salt-ready, corrosion-resistant hardware built to hold up trip after trip
- True fresh & salt crossover jig heads — one tackle box, every water
- 10X Tough ElaZtech® baits that take hit after hit without tearing
- Backed by a small team that actually answers the phone
Built for the Salt, From the Hooks Up
Every piece in the saltwater lineup is designed around one idea: gear that keeps working after the salt, sand, and structure have had their say.
Corrosion-Resistant Hardware
Hooks and hardware built to shrug off salt exposure instead of rusting out after a few trips.
10X Tough ElaZtech® Baits
Soft plastics that hold up to blowups from reds, trout, and snook without tearing apart.
True Fresh & Salt Crossover
The same jig heads that work the flats also work the lake — no separate box for salt trips.
Patent-Pending HexFusion Tech
A stabilization keel and internal belly weight keep baits swimming true instead of rolling over.
Built to Do More
The Upgrade™ is built for TPE and ElaZtech soft plastics, and it holds plastisol and live bait, too.

Built By Anglers, For Anglers
After 15 years working with major outdoor brands, founder Dave Erdly kept running into the same problem: cheap hooks, inconsistent balance, and jig heads with eyes that just didn't hold up. So in 2023, he engineered The Upgrade™ jig head from scratch — patent-pending HexFusion Technology, a 60-degree line tie, a stabilization keel, and an internal belly weight system.
Ebb N Flow Outdoors is still a small team based in Mt. Pleasant, South Carolina — built to design fishing gear that actually works, and stand behind every piece we sell.
Answers, Not Guesswork
The things saltwater customers ask us most.
Will this jig head hold up in saltwater long-term, not just one trip?
Yes — the hardware on The Upgrade is built to resist corrosion from repeated salt exposure, not just survive a single outing. Rinse with fresh water after use like any saltwater tackle, and it'll keep producing trip after trip.
Does the same jig head really work in freshwater too?
Yes. It's a true crossover design — the same head that handles redfish and trout on the flats also works for bass and other freshwater species, so you're not buying separate gear for separate trips.
How fast does it ship, and where from?
Orders ship from Mt. Pleasant, South Carolina. You'll get a tracking number as soon as it's on its way, and orders over $50 ship free.
What if I order the wrong weight or color?
No problem — reach out through our contact page and our small team (the people who actually answer the phone) will help sort out an exchange.
What's your return policy?
Easy returns on unused gear. If something isn't right, contact us and we'll make it right — we stand behind every piece we sell.
Where are Upgrade jigheads made?
Made in USA with imported hooks. Every Upgrade jighead is poured and finished by Ebb N Flow Outdoors in Mt. Pleasant, South Carolina, on a premium Mustad hook.
