I've been using Berkeley swim shads and catching some good fish but they aren't weedless enough for the places I fish lol... So I was thinking about getting some jigheads for paddle tail swimbaits, which ones do you guys use that have a weedguard?

I was thinking about just ordering some naked seibert swim Jigheads...

Check out the Owner Sled Head - no weed guard - doesn't need one.

 

Comes right through just about anything.

I just use a swimbait hook with a screw lock in the front. It works just like an ewg and keeps it weedless and the screw lock holds it on well.

I do the same as Ryan, or else I'll use a keel weighted hook depending on the bait. You could just use a swimjig head too, but if it's weedy, you'll bet better performance from a swimbait hook.

Blade Runner makes a good weedless swimbait jig.

I like the Warbaits head for a weedless swimbait jighead.  I usually just a regular swimbait hook around vegetation though.

Going through Seibert for naked jigs might be a good option. I pour my own naked swim jig heads when I need weedless swimbait heads.

I guess I'm missing something..

For years I've just used a tex posed keel weighted twist lock hook, or a standard hook with either a pegged weight or bullet shaped glass bead depending on the depth of the grass I want to fish it through.

I've seen the jig head, but didn't see any advantage to it over what I do.

Warbaits slayer weedless jigs, I know they make them for saltwater, but might work for you.

Swimbait weighted hooks slide right thru weeds really well. Get adjustable weights on them and you can adjust the way your bait falls.Sometimes that triggers strikes.
