Super User Hooligan Posted August 26, 2010 Super User Posted August 26, 2010 I like the TT heads, as well as the Secret Lures and Omega. I can't get the Omega in 1/16th anymore and that's a bit of a dislike for me. When it comes to fishing the 3X or Elaztech Strike King, I really like their shakey head for it. Dunno what it is, or why it is, but my hook-up ratio with the Elaztech is terrible on any other jig. Quote
Pete0402 Posted August 26, 2010 Posted August 26, 2010 Strike King's shaky head has the little barb just under the jig head that is specifically designed to hold on the elaztech baits. Btw i prefer these. lol Quote
I.rar Posted August 26, 2010 Posted August 26, 2010 spot removers. i have been using luck e strikes 1/16oz football heads with success. they also dont tend to get wedged in rock gaps and such. not to mention i got numerous packs of them on clearance. im kind of mixed on the spring or barbed collar. some baits go on the spring easy , while the slimmer ones dont center right. its not really an issue since the fish dont seem to mind , but it doesnt look that great lol.

Super User J Francho Posted August 26, 2010 Super User Posted August 26, 2010 Spot Removers are one of my favorites, but I wouldn't call them a shaky head. More like a stand up jig. For real shaky heads, I like Bagleys. Quote
BassThumb Posted August 27, 2010 Posted August 27, 2010 I like the Megastrike jigheads with the barb for deeper, standard shaky head presentations, but the bargain-bin Bagleys jigheads in 1/16 oz have produced for me better than any other. Use a couple drops of glue on it to hold the bait in place, and you have a fine skipping bait thats deadly around docks. Quote
BossHoss Posted August 27, 2010 Posted August 27, 2010 I shakey head fish a lot and have used at least ten different brands of jig heads. I find that I prefer certain traits as much as any one brand. I have to have that screw lock, and I like the smaller ones the best. The smaller screw locks seem to work the best with my roboworms. I also tend to steer towards the football shaped heads and away from the ball heads. I just don't think the ball heads stand up as well on the bottom. I can make do with any brand that sports these traits, but I am buying megastrike in 3/16 if i get my way. Quote
Blues19 Posted August 28, 2010 Posted August 28, 2010 1/8 oz spot removers have put me in the money alot, with zoom finesse worms. Make sure you get the pro style, with the screw in wire, not the other ones. Quote
LazyBASS1301600404 Posted August 30, 2010 Posted August 30, 2010 Are these megastrike shakey head jigs good for heavy weeds? Want to test it for that but don't want to pull in weeds every cast? Quote
Super User Hooligan Posted August 30, 2010 Super User Posted August 30, 2010 Are these megastrike shakey head jigs good for heavy weeds? Want to test it for that but don't want to pull in weeds every cast? I haven't had good luck with them in weeds, no. They hang a lot more than a football or ball head. On another note, I fished the Owner Shakey head this weekend, and really like the way it fishes with a smaller worm. I had a really good hook-up rate with that head, as good or better than my usual head. Quote
Super User Bassin_Fin@tic Posted August 30, 2010 Super User Posted August 30, 2010 Picasso all the way! Quote

I wasn't in what I'd call super heavy weeds, but there was some salad and the Owner head worked just fine. Minimal hangups through the day. Quote

DWG1984 Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 I like the Gambler giggy heads and the TT Ball busters. Quote
