what are the best jigs to buy

Aint no such animal but there are personal favorites  

Mine is Terry Oldham's Screwlock Jig which features a Gamakatsu hook that is super sharp out of the package and retains its sharpness better than any jig hook I've used.

Use the search button, there is a thread like this.

Everyone has a different opinion on jigs, and you're going to get a WIDE variety of answers here because everyone has their own preferences.

I like thick skirts, sharp hook (gamakatsu), and a nice head.

1. MicroMunch (I just got them in the mail today, and looks alone they beat the other 10 jig brands I've tried this past month).

2. Evolution Jig

3. JigX

4. Rabbit Hair Jigs

5. Skinny Bear

Strike King

Yes that is very true, great look and great movement

for swim jigs, outkast by a mile.

If your swimming them a jig with an Arrow-head design.

If your flipping wood nothing beats a jig with an Arkie head.

If your fishing grass- I havent found a good one yet.

Fishing deep, ledges, points, ect... Omega football jig

I like Strike King and Booyah.  If I'm going to throw a jig with a rattle, I'll go one size smaller to compensate for the added weight of the rattle.

FYI: a jig weight is based on the amount of lead used to form the head; add to this weight a hook, skirt, & trailer it doesn't weigh the same.

Put a ½ oz on a scale & check it out

Bet it aint no ½ oz

I'm on a Tru-Tungsten kick right now.  They make solid jigs that have a full skirt.  I'll keep using these until I find something that I like better. 8-)
