huntryx Posted June 3, 2020 Report Share Posted June 3, 2020 I am starting to make chatterbaits and the most commonly used jig (from what I can tell) is the Do-It Poisontail, with or without weedguards. I already have the Manic Mullet mold, which looks pretty similar-- do I really need to get another mold or can I make the Mullet work? Thoughts......

smalljaw Posted June 3, 2020 Report Share Posted June 3, 2020 The Manic Mullet is closer to the Snootie jig than it is the Poison Tail. You can really use any head you want to make a bladed jig, it just depends on the hook you want. I like using the Trokar Pro Swim Jig head and I like the Sparkie head as well but it depends on what the situation I'm using it in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadman Posted June 3, 2020 Report Share Posted June 3, 2020 You can use any head you want as long as the hook eye will allow the split ring to move freely. I personally like the Trokar Pro Swim jig as well. You can get nice heavy sharp hooks with big hook eyes. However, find what works for you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
