For those who have switched to tungsten jigs, how do you like them for fishing around brush piles?  Either offshore stuff or lay-downs in shallow water...

 

Does the smaller head keep it from getting hung up in limbs?  Or does it make it get hung up more?  

 

Also, how do the smaller heads of tungsten jigs work for skipping? (assuming its a good head shape for skipping).  

 

I'm looking at buying a bunch of new jigs from Siebert - and the price of the tungsten ones is pretty reasonable.  I'm just trying to determine if they really do have a benefit, or if there is anyone out there with a good reason for not liking them.

Some states lead is outlawed and tungsten is a must. Tungsten is a hard metal vs lead being soft, harder metal creates better feedback when contacting rocks.

The jig head design and hook style have more to do with how well the jigs works in cover, more streamline with eye at the nose is a good choice for cover. Stand up jigs heads work better in rocks.

ps, Sieberts Pitching tungsten jig should work for a good all around style jig, not sure what hook it has?
