My favorites : "brush" style (top) -- Y-guard style (bottom)

And while many of these styles can be purchased "off the shelf", I prefer mine "custom made" because I can choose hook size & color and color of the weedguard (in some cases).
My "go to" favorite is the Y-guard style weedguard on a 1/16oz ballhead with a #2 gold Aberdeen hook and a clear Y-guard. (shown in above pics is the black Y-guard)

I use these in the crap I fish in. Bass Pro Shops Hook Guard for Weedless Lures | Bass Pro Shops
where can you buy the y guard jig
Check with our custom jig makers. I believe we have several that can make them for you. I deal with Grousefly.Quote:

These are pretty good. Pricey? Yes. Until you consider the time saved by not retying all day.
Watching this post. Not fun retieing all day
Look em up on you tube. They have a video on the crappie jigs. Will you still get hung up? Yes. It's not near the frequency though.
I see CB Sliders web site has a jig head called NUTTER HEAD or "Little Pig."
Just a wire hook bent about 45 degrees. Any of you tried them before?
Charlie Brewer crappie slider's!!!CB ,Nutter Head yes cannot beat them for thick brush.
