Plain jighead works. I've been using these past couple of seasons, god knows if they work better...they sure look nicer to me, but then again I'm not a fluke.

Plain jigheads work, but do you really fish them plain. no you don't you add gulp or some type of bait or you paint the heads certain colors. Can we really say that a plain head with some gulp outfishes a complete bucktail? I would think that a complete bucktail with a piece of gulp would be just as productive .. The movement of the hair and the colored head must have some attraction to the fish.. Add some gulp and the setup is complete.
The real spro has become way to expensive for the average fisherperson, especially where we have to fish now. Stop by one of our local sponsor tackle shops and pick up a couple of bucktails made by OMT, PALMER or Bucktail Boys. Very well made and won't cost you an arm and a leg..BUY AMERICAN

I used to use a spro with a teaser up about 12 - 18 inches. When you lose 10 or 20 you start to think of other ideas. Since most of the fish were caught on the teaser, I started just using a sinker with a fluke hook teaser tipped with Gulp. I have caught some of my biggest Fluke on this rig anyway just saying sometimes it's the color, sometimes the jig but the gulp scent I think is what really attracts them.

They want the gulp not the jig, it dont matter, i stopped using the painted bucktails w/Hair in the sticky stuff got to dam expensive now i use the bullet style lead head jig slide on 6 inch grub looks more natural , top hook 7/0 baitholder hook 6inch mullet most times they hit the top. Saw a guy last week off the beach using 1oz sinker on bottom of hi lo rig and 4inch gulp mullet got me thinking in deeper water experiment same rig with more lead.
