    I enjoy fishing swimbaits and a couple of lakes I fish are perfect for this technique. The problem is there aren't a lot of heavy jigheads that have a small enough hook to rig a smaller swimbait (around 3" long). I have been thinking about getting into jig making and have been looking into my jighead options. Are there any 1/2 oz to 3/4 oz jighead molds that will allow for a shorter shank hook to rig smaller swimbaits? A lot of these molds recommend certain hooks and hook sizes. What would happen if I use a smaller hook sizes than what's recommended?

    So last year, I had a lot of success with the Ned Rig. I exclusively used Z-Man baits and the finesse Shroomz jig head - 90% of the time the 1/15th weight. I did occasionally have some issues with bending/breaking hooks and with the keepers coming off, but overall found that my hookups and getting fish into my kayak were good. Seeing as it is stupid cold out and I don't ice fish, I was doing some research for the upcoming season and came across Berkley Half Head Jigs - which come in a variety of colors and the 1/16th have a size 1 hook. Anyone have any experience with these vs. the Z-man jig heads? One of the main reasons I am considering these are that a pack of 8 are generally a lower price than a pack of 5 of the finesse Shroomz... Obviously I'd love to buy some and take them out for a test run, but it doesn't seem like that's going to happen for 3 months or so! Last thing - I am located near Toronto, Ontario so ordering something specific online generally becomes too costly once factoring in shipping and I do not have any experience in making my own jig heads, nor am I looking to get into that at this time...

    Hi - brand new to the site and have NEVER posted to any site. Does anyone know where to get lead free mushroom jig heads for finesse fishing for bass. New Hampshire where I do my smallmouth fishing is mandating lead free under 1 oz. Thanks

    I have a Yum Flash Mob Jr. and several packs of the 3.5" Alewife Cane Thumper. Looking for recommendations on some good jig heads for this rig. I usually use 1/8th oz on the top and 3/16-1/4 oz heads on the bottom, but looking for a good brand to pair with the shad color Alewife. I've gotta a BPS gift card and need to order some! thanks for the input!
