I have a 4 5 6 ounce ball head jig mold that accepts tying and sluggos. I've also seen guys that take a 4&5 ounce hot lips mold and dremel out the lips to make the jigs a little heavier and to get that canal jig look as well. Just some suggestions I wanted to throw out there for ya. Both molds are do-it's.

Good luck

Thanks Bob. We are trying to weigh the pro's of the canal special versus other styles. I have done ok with a regular ball jig style bucktail when I have tried em. It is hard for me to go away from the canal style though since they definately catch.
