I'm looking for a football head jig to fish soft plastics in rocky cover. Basically I'm looking for a football shakey head. What do you guys use?

What weight are you looking for?

Ummm what is that?

I use strike king football heads in 3/16 to 1/2 oz, green pumpkin or black

I will probably throw 1/4oz the most and 1/2oz as well.

I have always like Picasso's football head jigs...some people can't stand that thin diameter wire keeper, but I have never had an issue with it.

NorthStar also has a great jig head.

Do a Yahoo or google search for Pumpkin'Ed jigs

^That.^

Catt - do u use the worms designed for this rig and drag 'em or something else?

Tackle It in Lakeport CA has a special stand up football shakey head with a wide gap Gammi hook. I have had great success with this one. They sell on line.

I use worms, lizards, creatures, & crawl worms

x2 plus, they are RAZOR sharp with a fairly thin diameter hook for easy penetration.

I too would say the Northstar football jig for my number one.

yea the yum pumpkin'ed is freakin awesome!!!!!! i also use the nichols screwball head and the megastrike stand up head. these things really do stay upright. its hard to topple it over and even if it does, it stands right back up.

Anybody having trouble with the pumpkin Ed jig falling over constantly? I have been trying mine out and they seem to keep falling over. I have to constantly hop them to keep the bait standing up and then sometimes it falls over then. I am trying to keep it on a taut line as to prevent from me from me making it fall. Any suggestions?

For regular football heads I use Revenge and for shake-e I use either the Strike King or Picaso

Wish I had as many options! With our new lead ban, I have to get mine from Green Tackle.com, or a local fellow who pours bass jigs with bismuth/tin.
