GetBent Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 I haven't heard or seen these jigs heads till a couple of days ago. I thought I would spread the word for those who like small paddle tail swimbaits. Threw it for the first time today in the 1/4oz 5\0 hook. Did well enough to buy some more. I don't have much luck with spinnerbaits so this will be my shallow water bait. Caught about 8 bass on it and nothing special but it was a tough day. Owner flashy swimmer try some. 2 Quote
zeth Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 please delete this post.. giving away my secrets. actually one of my #1 rigs with a keitech. 3 Quote
GetBent Posted April 9, 2016 Author Posted April 9, 2016 I ordered some keitech for the same reason. I'm gonna be fishing bass champs tournament on Falcon Lake and I will be tossing these in the trees and shallow rocks. Quote
Super User Dwight Hottle Posted April 9, 2016 Super User Posted April 9, 2016 Good bait. Check the connecting ring at the lead head & crimp it if needed. I had the spinner blade & wire come off on one. Quote
GetBent Posted April 9, 2016 Author Posted April 9, 2016 Yeah they're not bulletproof. They do need a little mending while in use. It would be nice to see if Siebert outdoors could make a similar setup with better components. Until then they work fine for the time being. I should have lost it to bushes about 10 different times but it always came out after A little game of tug O war. Quote
TxHawgs Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 Awesome! been fishing them w keitech baits also. Comes through cover and grass very well. Like it better than a spinnerbait. And u can get it to work higher or deeper in the water column by using a bigger and bulkier swimbait or a smaller one. Quote
Avalonjohn44 Posted April 10, 2016 Posted April 10, 2016 Weird, I just came across these for the first time today. I was gonna pick some up, but grabbed some TRDs instead. Guess I'll be heading back tomorrow... Quote

Super User Montanaro Posted April 11, 2016 Super User Posted April 11, 2016 I use 5/0 for 5 inch baits and 3/0 for 3.5 inch baits Quote
primetime Posted April 11, 2016 Posted April 11, 2016 Gambler makes a version that looks pretty good as well and you can make it yourself while on the water and change blades to fit your style. I have never really used them but it sounds like I should. I use the blakemore road runner style heads which are different but I like the looks of that weighted hook and blade since I fish most of my swimbaits without a skirt or jig, so that would help add flash and I bet it is much easier to fish than a spinnerbait...I need to check those out..

avidone1 Posted April 14, 2016 Posted April 14, 2016 it looks like you just put the plastic onto the screw type bait holder but I wonder if anyone is 'secretly' threading the bait onto the hook Quote
RB 77 Posted April 14, 2016 Posted April 14, 2016 I have them in a few different sizes. Nice rig. While I use Gammies almost exclusively for regular hooks, I do like quite a few Owner products for jig heads with hooks. I.E. Flashy Swimmers, Ultra Shaky heads, etc. My buddy swears by the Sled head style Ultra Heads. Quote
