Super User eyedabassman Posted February 7, 2008 Super User Posted February 7, 2008 I was looking at these new shaky heads. I did see Grisby fishing them on an his TV show. Have any of you fished them? Are these just another jig head ? What are the pro's to this jig head vs. others? :-/ Quote
Terry_ Posted February 7, 2008 Posted February 7, 2008 Have not seen them yet. Can you post a link? Quote

Rob G. Posted February 7, 2008 Posted February 7, 2008 A tip here, if you are fishing current. Use the Lucky Strike round heads that Walmart carries. In current they will not stand anyways. Quote
Super User FishTank Posted February 7, 2008 Super User Posted February 7, 2008 I picked up a package of these last weekend. They looked good but when I got them out of the package, I could tell that quality was not as good as I expected. I need to fish them before I saw that they're junk. At a first glance though, I would say that there are better alternatives out there at the same price. Quote
Super User Tin Posted February 7, 2008 Super User Posted February 7, 2008 I would say that there are better alternatives out there at the same price. Yup, I picked up a pack of them and they are nothing special. : Quote
Joel W Posted February 7, 2008 Posted February 7, 2008 There are tons and tons of jigs out there for Shaky Head presentations. Most will work, and some, like the Strike King only let you bury the hook point but not TX rig it while keeping the worm straight. I've settled on a plan old ball jig and use a Hitch Hicker to attach the worm to the jig line eye. Works great every time. Quote
Super User RoLo Posted February 7, 2008 Super User Posted February 7, 2008 The choice of jighead really depends on the shaky worm you intend to use. For instance, if you're using a Strike King Finesse Worm, the springback in 3X plastic might spring backward off that keeper barb. Roger Quote
