caliboy Posted January 29, 2005 Report Share Posted January 29, 2005 Can someone tell me what type of jighead this is.... The brown looking thing is a plastic flap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanillagorilla Posted January 29, 2005 Report Share Posted January 29, 2005 looks similar to the weedless plastic grubs, the flap would be bent back and skin hooked on the point of the hook for a weedless presentation. Never saw one made this way though, usuallythe flap is a part of the grub body not the jighead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nova Posted January 29, 2005 Report Share Posted January 29, 2005 Is the plastic soft or hard? How is it held on the jighead? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jigmeister Posted January 29, 2005 Report Share Posted January 29, 2005 Looks to me to be a "Scrounger" jig head that was made around the late 70's -80's . The plastic hood thingy was actually like a lip to make the jig swim back and forth ........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nova Posted January 29, 2005 Report Share Posted January 29, 2005 That's what I thought but I couldn't remember the name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caliboy Posted January 29, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2005 So would it be hopeless to find one of this "Scrounger Jigs" I have caught many a Calico and Sand Bass here in California's Local waters with this Jig. Any tips on where I might find one of these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KC Kevin Posted October 21, 2005 Report Share Posted October 21, 2005 Hello New to the board. I was googling 'scrounger' and found this board. I know a source for these jig heads. Been looking for a couple years myself since I saw a buddy with one. He was slaying the Calicos with it. He used a Zoom Fluke with it. http://www.charkbait.com/specials.htm#SPECIAL%20#%207 Not cheap but fishing isn't cheap. Right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
