another vote for sickles!
I have been using both for a couple of years and didnt think there was a difference with the sickle hook. A couple of weeks ago I broke off and tied on a sickle hook. I noticed then that all the fish I caught were hooked real good in the roof of the mouth. That day made me a believer in the sickle hook.

I have been using sickle hooks for a while now. I seem to get a better hook up with them.

Definitely sickle hooks. 1/16, 1/8, 3/32, 3/16, 1/4 oz
I use both but given a choice I will go with sickles every time. They are much sharper than J hooks.
Sickle for me
Yep..prefer sickles

I prefer the sickle but if you paint your own jig heads don't waste your money buying the red ones because the red will just burn off.

I use both I really like the number 4 gold when pouring but also make them using sickle. It is a great jig for dock shooting sliders or other smaller bodies. I've been using #2 sickles when I want a bigger hook. For walleye I use normal gold #1 to 2/0 depending th size of the jig, tbe normal bend works better if you are tipping it with a minnow. Find one you like and have confidence in then stick with it, advice I dont follow because I like experimenting too much when pouring jigs
