mark poulson Posted January 19, 2018 Report Share Posted January 19, 2018 Does anyone here pour and sell a 3/8 oz swim jig head, with a strong 4/0 hook, similar to the Strike Kind Squadron? I'm looking for a head with a collar for tying on a skirt. A bait keeper would be nice, too, but it's not as critical. I'd like depressions for eyes, too, or at least flat faces so I can glue on eyes, but, again, it's not as critical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jig Man Posted January 19, 2018 Report Share Posted January 19, 2018 (edited) The Troker swim jig might be what you are looking for. I bet either Cadman or Smalljaw can fix you up. http://www.tacklewarehouse.com/Do-it_Trokar_Hook_Jig_Molds/descpage-DITKRML.html Edited January 19, 2018 by Jig Man 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EironBreaker Posted January 22, 2018 Report Share Posted January 22, 2018 (edited) Yep, that's the mold. I bought one and poured a bunch of 3/8 oz heads yesterday. It will take either a light or heavy wire flat eye hook. It has a collar for the skirt and also another for the trailer.

smalljaw Posted January 22, 2018 Report Share Posted January 22, 2018 Mark, I really like that Trokar Pro Swim Jig!! I wasn't sure about it as it used a 60 degree flat eye hook but it has become my heavy hitter. It comes through heavy brush really well and while it uses a heavy hook it still remains relatively compact. I'll be totally honest, I got that mold with 1 purpose in mind, to make a bladed swim jig, but my curiosity got the best of me and I decided to make a few just to swim with and I was really impressed with how well it did. You can use a lot of different trailers but a short and stocky bait gives this jig a big profile while still remaining compact because of the 60 degree hook, the 4" Big Bite Baits shad and 4" Mister Twister Sassy Shad have worked well as have the more traditional slender baits but I like using that head for heavy cover and a bigger presence in the water.

cadman Posted January 23, 2018 Report Share Posted January 23, 2018 (edited) I will echo everyone else's answers Trokar swim jig with a heavy hook. I also use that head for chatterbait style lure. Edited January 23, 2018 by cadman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
