mifon Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 Ok, all you wise gentlemen and gurus. I need your help. I want to mold a jig to fish in brush and logs, both casting and maybe some flipping also. I'm looking for a jig similar to the Strike King Pro Model jig or Omega jig. This jig is only for my use (and some of my fishing buddies). I prefer a flat eye. Which mold would you suggest?? Thanks Mike in TN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smalljaw Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 I would suggest the new brush jig but if the flay eye hook is a must then the flat eye arky jig is whay you want. For me I really like the poison tail although it doesn't have a flat eye, I fish this jig in weeds, laydowns and deep offshore humps that most use football jigs for. It's a versatile jig and the hook up precentage is really good thanks in part to the EWG hook it uses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadman Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 (edited) I am going to agree with smalljaw. My first choice would be the Poison Tail or the Snootie Jig and forget about the flat eye hook. If you insist on a flat eye, then go with the Arky. I too am a big fan of the EWG hook. You can even get the EWG for the Arky jig. I also believe you get beter hook-up percentages with the EWG hook shape as well.
