Favorite jigs?

[sqhertz]

What's everyones favorite jigs? Bucktail or for plastics. I would rather buy bulk if someone if I can find some with quality hooks. Also, what size hook does everyone prefer for 2" baits?

Thanks!!

Hey Man,


I have had the best luck with the lunker city ultra light round jigheads in both 1/16 and 1/8oz. Their cone shape bait keeprs allow for more fish per bait. Just mu opinion though. I have landed thousands of fish on them in last few years. These jigs come with a size 4 hook. It works great with 2" baits.

Thanks I'll check those out.

Didn't realize I butchered my post until I reread it just now. Still getting used to this new swype keyboard for my phone.

Right now I would say that my favorites are a 2 inch Kalin Triple Threat grub with a 1/16 oz. Luck-E Strike two color jig head with a black nickle gamakatsu hook and a 2 inch Yamamoto crappie grub with a 1/32 oz. Luck-E Strike two color jig head with a black nickle gamakatsu hook. These two grubs seem to cover most of my ultra light needs in the river and in lakes. I also have had great luck with the River 2 Sea Standing Yabbie 40. These baits catch fish, are not very durable. However, after the Shellcrackers in the river tear off the claws, I end up with a nice ultra-light standing jig head with black nickle hooks that works well with the Lindy Whatsit Grub body. This year I am looking for a good ultra light shad tail grub. I have ordered the 2 inch Keitech Swing Impact grub, the 13/4 inch Ecogear Grass Minnow and the 2 inch Megabass Rocky Fry Vib Tail grub. If any of you have used these shad tail grubs or can recommend another shad tail grub for ultra light fishing, I would like to hear your thoughts and recommendations. Thanks.

T-Grub,


Not sure if it fits your fishing but I have had amazing results with the 2" Berkley Powerbait Ripple shad. Nice baitfish profile and a great thumping shad tail. I have caught an amazing amount of crappies, bluegills, yellow perch, pickerel , both LM and SM bass as well as a few awesome Walleyes on these thrown on 1/16oz jigheads. Just my .02...........I an also a fan of the the old school slider grub...

Nice flounder. I just picked up a couple of bags of 1/16 oz. Gamakatsu jigs with size 1 black hooks for both the Yamamoto 2 inch grubs and the Ecogear Grass Minnow. I used Pro-Tec powder paint to paint them black, then baked them in the oven to harden the finish. They feel sharp. I am looking forward to testing them out on some smallmouth bass if the weather in Virginia ever warms up. We got three inches of snow yesterday in Roanoke.

I've been fishing a lot of the 1/16oz Keitechs in the 3 or 4 different types of jigs they make. All of them are great except for the shakey heads. A few of them are even UL sized!

Leland Trout and Crappie Magnets....Crappie at 1/16 and 1/32 oz.; Trout: gold, black and silver in 1/64 oz. size.

Nice for those very lifelike but tiny Crème Creatures.

They seem to have their own bugs now too.

Made in USA as well.

Is more easy and faster to paint the jig head with Pro-Tec powder paint with heat gun,so you don't need to baked them in the oven.

Honestly, I am happy with the BPS 1/32 squirt heads. I like the oval (as opposed to circle) profile. They are cheap and easy and hook just fine panfish and LMB. I could probably try something fancier, or even larger. But I am happy.

I really like the lunker city UL jigheads, very sharp hooks. Also like to find painted jigheads whenever I can as the colour can really make a difference, especially when the water isn't all that clear. For a trailer, I have yet to find a better one than the 2" grubs from Gary Yamamoto, they're killer! Catch everything from the smallest of Rock Bass to 3 pound Smallies. Just beware as the plastic on the grubs is very soft and rips after a couple fish, but well worth it.
