It depends....
I like ball jigs and curltails in the canal. The ball jigs get hung up less than bullets , smilin bills or shad heads. The ball and curltail will get down at about 1 OZ less weight than a %$%$%$%$y smillin bill.
However , if I'm drifting them instead of backbouncing balls I like to drift Smilin Bills.
Certain times shad bodies are the ticket. I hate them from a casting and working point of view but sometimes thats what the fish want so that's what they get.
Eel skin jigs is a whole nother thing , a science unto itself.
