jighead types

[shadstu64]

been changing my jigheads lately ..i find the ballheads fitted with a shad fall over onto there sides when on the bottom and i dont think there hook up rate is good enough !!!..ive now changed over to the eerie type and the football heads ...when on the bottom they rest with the hook straight up ..i think itll help me get a better hook up rate when using small shads and creature baits ...bit of testing needed now

I am not so experienced with jigheads Stu but in my limited experience, Dragon jigheads are the best I have tried.

well ive tested new football and stand up jigheads in deeper water off the wall ..vertical jigging used both lures and dead minnows and yes they work ace !!!  fished just a few inches off the bottom ive had some very nice sport with both pike and perch ..next step is to make some bigger fireball types for use off the kayak now i know they work !!

made a few 20g fireball 3/0 pike jigheads for off the kayak ..will be using both lures and deads with them ery simple to make really ....need painting and sealing and stingers making ..then hopefully off for a few pike !!!

Looking good Stu.

A lot of potential for 'sink and draw' with deads.
