Strike King Comeback jig vs Buckeye Mop

Featured Replies

Hey guys so in my area I can pick up the Sk comeback locally, but not the buckeye. I am looking for these in 1/2 to 3/4 in a football head. How do these two compare? Is one larger in profile to the other? Im looking at these as an upgrade bait for when I have my limit, so which is the bigger bait, or are they similarly sized?

I'm partial to the Buckeye mop jig, but the sk jig does seem very similar in size, same bait keeper, probably same living runner just different heads, I'd say go with the best deal..

Theyre both great, I havent compared comparable models side by side in terms of profile. But if we’re splitting hairs, the buckeye pulls ahead slightly because it has a wire tied skirt. If ordering in bulk, its something to consider as they age. Though I’ll admit the living rubber on mine usually turns to goo before the silicone bands rot.

 

I know you didnt ask- but just my two cents, the better bet is to scrounge up some of the discontinued Booyah Pigskins while readily available.  Gamakatsu hooks, hand tied, and some cool silicone/rubber blends. Im away from my tackle at the moment but I believe its a finer gauge of living rubber also.
