Eye Hole Jigs by Crappie Magnet / Trout Magnet - Anyone Used Them?

[Markie Boy]

Got a chance to fish the 1/32 oz. Eye Hole jig head with a Trout Magnet, and I'm pretty convinced they help! I had fish really eating the bait, not just hitting it. Has anyone else played with these much?

Those jigs work good I think.

Just an IMHO . Doesn't take deep thinking to wrap your mind around this. Will a jig with the nibble or any scent attractant ( soild style not liquid ie crappie nibbles ) like the eye hole jig help you catch more fish with less nibbles than simply drying them out a bit so they are tuffer, than putting it directly on the hook of any jig. Yes. Do you get the same amount of scent disbursement ? , the reason of using them, as water is passing over the jig as you retrieve NO. Simple physics, the more water that passes over a nibble the more scent is disbursed. Have I used eyehole and other similar jigs. Yes. Have I caught fish? Yes. But common sense when applied to this tells me if the scent is helping more scent is better than less. IMHO. Reading my own typing seems like I'm doing a poor job of explaing my opinion. Apoligize in advance. Scott

I've used them and still do some comparisons with other jig heads and these. If my nibble is softer and won't stay on the hook for very long or can get knocked off quickly, these work a little better. I tend to leave my nibbles out on the lid while fishing out of habit before these heads came out to dry them out enough to get them to stay on the hook. I've also been experimenting with Slab Sauce and Slab Sticks for various rigs and presentation methods.

also the bigger head profile makes it easier to see on FF sonar

I like them because it prevents bluegills from stealing the nibble.
