    Default Reverse Barb Jighead?


    Has anyone used these before? Just curious if they hold the plastics as well as the traditional round head jig. Here is a link to a pic of them.

    Don't see why they wouldn't work like any other jig head for soft plastics, but wonder why do that as I can see any real advantage either. Maybe I am missing something. I don't use soft plastics hardly at all even though I have a ton of them so I am no expert for sure. I would still put some fishing glue on there when sliding that soft plastic on. Using some fishing glue (now can get that with a brush applicator) I doubt that you even need a barb.

    Yes, they do work, on plastics. I pour a jig similar to that one one with the pointy barb on the top, for a lot of guys, and I think the sharper barb holds better. JMO
