Can you identify this jig?

About 15 years ago I got some of these jigs but the packaging is long gone.  I don't remember the brand.  It is small - maybe 1/8 oz and the head design slows down the fall.

 

Anybody have a clue to the brand?  I only have one left and would like to get more.

    Similar but not exact.  

     

    Not likely. The only thing those 2 jigs have in common is a dimple on the head, and even those are different. Love the TV antenna weed guards on the OPs though... :)

    Yeah, I just looked through all the jigs on TW, and it’s not on there.  I remembered seeing the Japanese jig, so figured I could drop that if he can’t find the exact one, that one is similar.

    Thanks.  For some reason I was thinking it was Buckeye but if that is accurate it has been discontinued.

    Original Bass Stalker jigs were very similar with the concave flat stand-up head and were very popular on various online forums, but are also now discontinued.

    I started looking for a replacement several years ago and the closest I came up with is the Pepper Custom Baits Micro Jig.  The head is not concave but the profile is close.  I guess what is important is that I seem to catch just as many fish on them.

    The micro is a good jig.  I just wish TW carried the complete color line.

    Boss makes a skipping head with a similar shape, but angle of the hook is completely different.

    Bass stalker is my guess. They were bought by Uncle Josh.
