Super User deep Posted July 2, 2011 Super User Posted July 2, 2011 I bought some stand-up shakey heads from a guy on Ebay, and been having catching a bunch on them. Good stuff, these heads stand straight up all the time everytime. For the plastic, I was using 6" Roboworm Zippers, and the bass loved them. Then yesterday, I tried some baby brush hogs, and the bass loved them too, but the trouble is, with the brush hogs, the jig head doesn't stand up any more. I'm sure that wouldn't hurt as far as the fish-catching ability of the bait is concerned, but I'd like to have a kreature bait counterpart of the zippers. Looking to try something with a little more action. These are 3/16 oz shakey heads by the way. Quote
Incheon Basser Posted July 2, 2011 Posted July 2, 2011 All of the Berkley Havoc creature baits float. I would use the devil spear or pit boss. Quote

Triton21 Posted July 3, 2011 Posted July 3, 2011 Do the corkscrew holders on the Shakey Head jigs work with Elastech baits? Can it be screwed on? ....Bill Yes they will but are a B!tch to get screwed on. Kelley 1 Quote
kLuo Posted July 4, 2011 Posted July 4, 2011 Wonder if heating with a lighter helps? ...Bill yup, heating with a lighter makes it easier! Quote
Super User RoLo Posted July 4, 2011 Super User Posted July 4, 2011 Do the corkscrew holders on the Shakey Head jigs work with Elastech baits? Can it be screwed on? ....Bill When dealing with ElazTech soft-plastics (Strike King 3x), don't struggle with screw-coil retainers, but opt instead for "Z-shank retainers", for example 'Owner type-Z Heads' and 'Charlie Brewer Slider Heads' Roger Quote
