Thumbs up Hi Bob

It's funny, sometimes the lighter jigs produce better than heavy ones, like 2 ounces or so. But I know a guy who loves those giant 10 ounce Andrus jigs. These are all fished on the bottom and some days the heavy does it and some day the lighter does it.

Like you, I tend to stockpile the 4-5 ounce size as a catch all jig. When I fished as a mate on a charterboat in high school, we used 2 ounces jigs in the rips and they never touched the bottom, and we did really well.

The leadhead jig is very versatile, isn't it!
