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

I use the higher quality jig heads, normally I’ll go with joebaggs or s&s or owner hooks bullet head jigs.. I use my jig heads for fluke, bass, blues, anything really and quality does pay, i noticed if your jigging really rough bottom they hold up a lot better when popping out of snags and also the hook point holds up well. Just my 2cents... also I only fish 5” in the ocean on the jig and use either a 4” on top of a snipped 6” grub to 4”. I crush them on this combo.

S&S and Magictail both make round ball jigs with no bucktail that are specifically designed for Gulp.

I use 1.5-2 oz. unpainted bullet jig heads with 6" gulp grubs I cut a inch of the body of the gulp and then tip with a piece of meat.I know a diver and he told me 95% of the fluke are on the wreck and not in the sand around it.So we just hold the boat over the wreck and jig.We only had one trip this year that we didn't limit the boat out here off of Chincoteague,VA.

If you’re making a trip to fishermen’s den, check out Magictail Bucktails jighead selection. They make real high quality stuff. Great hooks and nicely priced as well.

I advise to check out some of the market places on facebook for NJ fishing tackle. You can find much better deals than you can at any tackle shop and the sellers make their own to order, so you can customize in any way you'd like. I would post here, but they aren't site sponsors.
