What’s the best 1/8oz jighead for 4” easy shiner? The ones I’ve used either had too big of a hook or too small.

thanks

Dirty jigs guppy heads

Nishine smelt heads

Keitech super round jig head

Outkast tackle goldeneye

 

Eyestrike Trout Eye. They also have a "finesse" Trout Eye with a 1/0 that I like a lot. But is really more suited for 3" or less paddletails

Which one do you prefer the screwhead or plain one better?

Berkley Fusion 19 has 1/8 with choice of 1/0 2/0 3/0 size hook

You don’t need to use the fancy, expensive heads. My friends and I use the plain, everyday dart head. They can be poured with any size hook you want

Both.  Sometimes the screwhead is the ticket.  Sometimes its just not necessary.

I favor a 90*eye

zman finnesse eyes great head, but the wire keeper can cause you to go through more baits

Owner Darter head

 

Keitech super rounds were basically made for these. 1/8oz comes in 1/0, 2/0, and 3/0. I go 2/0 or 3/0 for the 4", and have been liking the 3.5" with the 1/0 lately as well.

Several good suggestions. I prefer the stacked-cone type head like the Guppy, Nishine or Fusion jigheads. They don't seem to tear the soft plastic as much as barbed-type heads. I will add one more, the unpainted Gamakatsu stacked cone jighead, which is cheaper than most of the above-listed jigheads. To save some money, you can still recycle some of the torn plastics from these jigheads by putting them on another jighead that has a large barb.

The Megabass Okashira or the Dirty Jigs MA Swimbait head.
