Ned/shakeyheads

Featured Replies

Anyone try them for your smaller swimbaits. I couldn’t find ball heads with a long enough shank when I was at the store. So I picked up a few of these. They seem to swim great. The Ned hook might be a little light not sure yet. The shakey head seemed to be a great match up time will tell. I also used 1/4 ounce football heads that was a great match up for the 4.8 kietec. I need to order some real swimbait heads but these seem to work for now. I e caught a few so far. Any thoughts opinions.

The only thing I use the 3/32oz and 1/4oz cavities on my Midwest Finesse mold is to pour heads for grubs and small swimbaits. I've been wearing the walleye and saugeye out the last couple weeks with a 1/8oz head, 1/0 hook, and a 4" Strike King Swimming Shiner.

Blue, how are you retrieving those for those eyes?

Catching them in 2-6 feet of water with a slow, steady retrieve, they're absolutely crushing them. I took a bunch of pictures of them and had a hard time finding a picture with more than the jighead sticking out of the fish's mouth. Most of them needed pliers to get the bait back and looked more like this.

I like using them as light as possible on the weight I feel if I use an 1/8 oz or more it takes away most of the action
