    Default Couple of Wacky Head Swim Jigs


    These are 1/8 x #6 swim jigs I made from the Wacky Head Jig mold. They are 2 1/2' long and made with the EP fiber material. I have not fished them yet but am thinking that they will swim well with the jig eye forward. I left the wire weedguard off on these jigs. I like tying on this jig better than on the Bat Jig mold because it does not have that half collar that the bat jig does.

    I modified a mold to make 1/32 and 1/16 heads on the #6 wacky hooks and use those often when casting without a float and using plastics. The forward eye on the hook allows the jig to swim way better that heads with 90 degree legs. Love those wackys.

    I'd like to try trolling some of those. Do they come in 1/16 and 1/32?
