I'm looking to pick up some new jigs--in the past I've been throwing Strike King Bitsy Flips, but I'm sick of the hook bending out and I want a larger profile.  Can someone suggest a jig that comes in 1/4 or 5/16oz. size, with a 3/0 to 5/0 gammie or owner round bend (not EWG) hook, preferably with a head suited to weeds and brush?

I think a Jewel "eakins" jig would suit you. I like the 5/16oz

I am currently using three brands and testing another:

Evolution Jig: http://www.evolutionlures.com/evolution_jigs.html

GMAN Jigs (long time member)

Mircro Munch Tackle (earthworm77, BR member and writer)

Was going to say the same exact thing. My personal best this year came off this bad boy.

Karu's Poison tail jigs have given me some pigs as well.

Check out Gmans custom jigs too. You can find the link under his posts. Haven't given them a test drive yet but they are very nice.

Oldham's Lures Trailer Hitch Jig

I would say Proline but they have the EWG that you don't want.  I just started throwing these Revenge jigs and really dig em.

Rattle Head Baits. Check there website out. They have a awesome jig.

I like Evolution, Oldham, SK Elite Model and my hand made jigs. All colors, all sizes and all the time.

I'd send a message to harshman or gman here on this site.  One of them would probably be able to make exactly what you want.

I just got my first shipment of gman's jigs and they look real good!

I like the Booyah football and swim jigs.

Plus I'm now addicted to slingin' jigs into timber.
