Are we talking Bucktails and if so what are you tipping them with and how do you avoid from getting hung up in the rubble?

Hi Gerry,

I've tried many jigs including the Tidal Tails (rather expensive) that Chris1129 showed and have settled on buying banana jigs from Sam the Sinker Man, far cheaper than Tidal Tails and they work. You can ask Sam, he knows me as Henry. I use them painted with no bucktail and tipped with crab. You can see a picture of me holding a 7.5# tog with the jig in it's face, caught this one in the spring, picture on the Fish Tank website. Yes you get hung up, but not as often as with a heavy sinker. I can explain, but we should do a trip together and I can show you.
