TX-Deluxe Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 I had a buddy show me his texas rig setup. His hook had the bullet weight made onto the hook! Anyone know what this is called? Link? Quote
SFL BassHunter Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 Look up Owner Ultrahead Bullet Rig. Is that what you're looking for? Kind of a jighead attached to the hook. Quote
TX-Deluxe Posted March 28, 2017 Author Posted March 28, 2017 Nope. It literally looks like a bullet weight mated to a hook. Never have to worry about pegging Quote
SFL BassHunter Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 I have seen something like that at bass pro. Can't remember the name. But it is considered a jig head, looks more bullet weight though. I would say check out bps site and see if you can find something either under hooks, or jigs heads 1 Quote
TX-Deluxe Posted March 28, 2017 Author Posted March 28, 2017 Thanks for input guys Charlie Brewer slider heads I'm wondering if eyelet still grabs stuff Wondering how worm/craw/brush hog runs with it. 1 Quote
SFL BassHunter Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 Probably pay a premium for this style hook. I would prefer to peg my weight, because if I wanted to unpeg it, it would be easy instead of having to cut that hook off and switch back to a regular t-rig. Just my personal preference though. 2 Quote

Super User RoLo Posted March 28, 2017 Super User Posted March 28, 2017 Whenever a sinker & hook are unitized you've got a 'jighead', but there are countless designs. I don't care for the Jobee design for a couple reasons. The bond between the sinker & hook is easily broken then the sinker will rotate on the hook shank (that's not too kool). Also, the hook is too long and springy. Roger Quote
Super User Munkin Posted March 28, 2017 Super User Posted March 28, 2017 Jobee jighead is what I think you are looking for. Allen 2 Quote
Super User RoLo Posted March 28, 2017 Super User Posted March 28, 2017 The Jobee jighead is very weedless, BUT that long, spongy hook isn't conducive to solid hooksets. Charlie Brewer's Slider Head is far superior (the wide-gap version), but since it rides with the jighead cocked upward, it's not as weedless as the Jobee. Roger Quote

I think they have a BPS house brand that looks just like that. One reason I never got them is like RoLo mentioned above, the hook looks springy. 1 Quote

Super User fishwizzard Posted March 28, 2017 Super User Posted March 28, 2017 Yea, I have a few of those and the hook is really soft feeling. I only really use them with something super thin like a trick worm. Likely will not buy more once they are gone. Slider heads though, never had an issue with them. Quote
Super User Choporoz Posted March 28, 2017 Super User Posted March 28, 2017 http://www.sliderfishing.com/ I suggest the pro versions; especially spider classic pro and snagless pro. His worms are good, too....and cheap. Quote
Super User MIbassyaker Posted March 28, 2017 Super User Posted March 28, 2017 Owner bullet ultrahead: That's a 1/0, though. I don't think it comes in a 3/0. 2 Quote

This is the Upper Potomac panic rig for the summer. If you can't catch fish on this using a black power worm like the one above then take up golf.

Roger Depends on the jighead and what type of fishing you do. Jobee has different size and thickness of hooks they use for this head. I use the 2/0 hook ones all the time with creature baits on 10-20lb floro with no problems. Allen 1 Quote
