Which jig head style do you use for a given condition? There's a lot of different jig head styles ( smilin' bill, lima bean, bullet, etc.). Which one do you throw for a given condition ( white water surf, inlet current, etc)?

I like the smilling bills in rhode island breachways...lima beans get down faster and darter heads, bullets people use slugo's...fake burkley eels...plastic's.....2oz is a good bucktail at the breachways most times

I like smillin bills for bucktails, don't like the lima bean ones, they seem to get hung up easier. I'll use bullet heads on sluggos and triangular (shad) heads on fin s. I've also used round heads on smaller fin s and for curly tail grubs. So I guess for me it's more about what the trailer is then the conditions, different conditions I change weight not style.
