Ken A Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 Which brand & style of jigheads do you prefer to use for the majority of your fishing? I mainly use Owner & TT heads. I always have a few Gamakatsu & Nitro heads in my gear but probably 70% of the time I use Owner. I like them as they are sharp & strong plus the weedless heads are handy also as they allow me to fish areas where normal heads snag up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_lure Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 Owner (round black painted heads and weedless) and Gamakatsu (darter!!) mostly , although latley have been using some of the ultralight Nitros for breaming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick T Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 mainly TT's for everything except deep bass. Like Nitro painted heads in 1/2oz for that. Swoff try gamma round 211's in 1/16 size 2 or round 29's 1/12 size 4 for better hook strength (still not perfect though) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jethro Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 90% of my fishing is done with TT's and I love the HWS heads. I also have a few Nitros and Gamma's My mate has just bought a 1/16 and 1/32 Do-It moulds from the states. We have been using Mustard hooks because that's all we can get our hands on locally. We are in the process of ordering some Owner hooks from the states so we should be using home made heads from now on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 For most of my fishing I use Redbacks but I also use the smallest Squidgie Ball Heads for 1" presentations. The Owners also get used a fair bit and I have just purchased some of the TT Hidden Weights to see how they go. Cheers Windy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken A Posted April 20, 2005 Author Share Posted April 20, 2005 I think the hidden weight heads will be a goer but at this stage I have only seen them up to 1/20th ounce. Thats fine for the smaller tides here but having a bigger range up to about 1/8 would be more useful I think. There is ample room on the hook shank for more weight. Do they come heavier than 1/20 ?
