Solid 7 Bullhead
The head to match the body. Always key to have the right jig head and we spared no expense in testing this one to get it right. The same head style as our four5 head but we've put a longer shank, bigger gapped hook in there to fit the larger profile bait.
Still super strong to make sure it will hold in there against giants. We run this option when there is a greater likelihood of tarpon or stepping up in size of fish. The four 5 is still a good option, especially when it's snaggy, but now you've got a step-up when needed.
These heads are poured with a small bait keeper. While effective, over time larger baits can cause it to fail. This is common with all but screw locks, which are overly effective, mangling the bait when a good fish hits. We prefer, when possible, to crush the bait keeper a bit and use a dab of super glue to firmly hold the head in place.
We find the super glue is as effective as any bait keeper out there, when done correctly. And when a big fish does pull your bait body back, the glue bond is what fails not the rubber itself. That means your bait is generally fixable with a dab more glue for much more fishing. Add a bottle of Mend-It (check the listing if you haven't heard of it) and you're catching handfuls of fish on one body.
If you need a specific head size you don't see or would like to put in a custom color order please shoot us a note, we're happy to accommodate when possible.
