What plastic for these large shaky heads??

Featured Replies

I have these dirty jigs 1/2 oz magnum horseshoe shaky heads and wondering what you would use them on. These are a 7/0 gama hook. 
I have some 12” ol monsters but they might be too big. The 7” senko looks good though. 
Have you thrown these?

I think the Ol’ Monster is fine with that hook. It’s mostly tail and I’ve heard the bass recognize that and eat them well. The Senko looks fine too but with it being loaded with salt, it wouldn’t be my first choice. Most people go with a Zoom magnum trick/finesse worm or the like. 

Any large worm.  I have some of the Owner mag shakey heads in my cart @ TW...they come in either 8/0 or 9/0.  Going to use them on the 9.8" flick shake worms I picked up on sale.

I make some big swingheads with 7/0 hooks that I fish 7" stick worms, 11" YUM Mighty worms, Zman Giant TRDs, and a few others on. Any of those should work well on that shakyhead.

I used strike king 8” bull worm with those hooks and it seemed to work well.

Did you watch tactical bassin too?

 

I accidentally bought the 10” bull worms and they are way too big imo.

Just bite the old monster down maybe 25% and it'll be awesome on a shaky head or just fish it full sized and it will work fine but might tear up the plastic on casts.

 

I actually really like beavers and craws on shaky heads also.

Good idea.

The 10.5" Monster and 12" Magnum Monster, 10.5" Mighty Worm, and the Venom Nightmare 6.25" Craw work.
