what swim bait head are you using?
Which swim baitheads are you using?
I really love the Megabass Okashira heads rigged with 4" hazedongs, but only thing is, I am down to my last pack of 4 and It's getting harder to find these things lol
Need an alternative!

Picasso heads for the win. I use the #1 on 2.8" and 3" baits, the 2/0 on 3.3", the 4/0 on 4.8"s. I might be wrong about the last, could be 5/0 in the Gamakatsu version because they run a tad bit small. The Mustad version 5/0 works for me even on the 5.8's.Hogsticker2 wrote:I've tried so flippin many and now I'm sticking to one.

For 4" swimbaits mentioned I use a lot of weedless heads by OMTD or the Owner Ballhead shaky heads. A small swimbait rigged weedless dragged through light cover is #1 technique for me.

Revenge, in different variations.
Great combination of color, size and weight choices with good hooks.

Omegas new X head..
concave head design so the bait fits snug and has a double retention band either for a SB or double skirts or combination of both..

Found it. Will there be more weight options available? I'm only seeing a half ounce. Do you know what the hook is, or size of the hook?Hogsticker2 wrote:Is this on the market yet? I'm not finding itNitroman77 wrote:Omegas new X head..

Follow up to the jighead question is what baits are you guys finding the most success with? Asking because I am just now starting to throw them and with very little success of late.
