3-4oz jighead for 4 and 5 gulp mullet?

[Anthony]

instead of using bucktails with gulp..i want to try just plain jigs with the 4 and 5 inch gulp mullet?

Can anyone suggest the best jighead to use in the 3-4oz size?

TIA

I use kalins for up to 1oz, i'd assume they make them bigger, but i've never looked. you could just cut the bucktail hairs off your favorite bucktail jigs i guess too.

The cheapest ones you can find, unpainted/no eyes: the Gulp attracts the fluke, the doodads attract the angler

Terminal Tackle has a bunch to choose from painted and unpainted. I would just experiment.

Egg sinker, mustad O'Shaughnessy 6/0 or 7/0, and a toothpick to pin the sinker. Works well, although i use 1-2 oz. and 6" gulp grubs.

3-4oz jig head HOOK is way to big for 4 and 5 inch mullet, plus dont look natural, use the 2oz bullet head jig OR BALL HEAD JIG and 6 inch grub.

For 4 and 5 inch mullet use a 4/0 and 5/0 baitholder hook,egg sinker and a toothpick to pin the sinker.

Or use the 2oz bullet head jig and 6 inch grub, above that tie dropper loop and
4 and 5 inch mullet use a 4/0 and 5/0 baitholder hook.

I use these, cheap and the barb holds the gulp on well, or at least better than a plain hook with the new, sponge like gulp
