I really like your idea of forgoing the frills and selling in bulk, Francis. Why spend a fortune on jig heads that you're just gonna lose anyway? Hope you sell a ton.

My preference is for the thin shad type heads, the second one down. I think the thin, sharp design cuts the current better and gets to the bottom faster. I also think it presents a wider profile when the fish sees it from the side, and there's more room to be creative with color, eyes, etc.

My second choice is the triangular "thick shad" type right below it, for similar reasons. That's the most common high-end style I see. They're getting on up to $3.00 each at some shops.

I'm sure there are advantages and disadvantages to each style. I've seen you slay some hawgs on those round ones but damned if I can figure out why.

Good luck!
