Thread: Looking for Daiwa Jigheads

I am looking for the 1 gram black daiwa jigheads with a #10 hook if anyone has any extra to sell? Of course I am also looking for the 1 gram black daiwa jigheads with a #8 hook as well. I have some assorted sizes I could possibly trade as well but would rather buy.

I've been looking every day for months, but no joy. The last black ones I scored were months ago from the Japan Ebay site, limit 7 packs. Plat told me Daiwa has discontinued them.

I have plenty of glow and a decent amount of black 1 gram #8 and black 1.5 gram #8... they sure are hard to get... I did score some new ones...

Don't discount the glow color. I caught my PB crappie today (pic in main forum) and 4 other big slabs on a simple hand tie, done on a 1.5g #8 hook glow color gekkabijin head. I tied it with monkey milk chenille and shad gray hackle, with 2 strands of krystal flash. I only caught 5 today, but they were all over a pound, and they hit that jig with gusto.

About year ago Amazon sent me 10 packs 1.5g #8 hook black color gekkabijin heads by mistake...Lol, I only ordered one pack to see if I wound liked them...I like them.

Willing to trade 1.5 gram black #8 hook for 1 gram black #10 hook if anyone is interested

Oh wow haha

These are pretty good, they got micro barb and a long shank.

Those are good jigheads for the Trout Magnet, a drop of super glue and you are good to go. I have not tried to powder paint them or use as a hand tie head but I bet they would work, and are readily available.

Yes, just started using the 1/64 to make craft fur jigs with. I know one thing, the hooks are way stronger than my gekkabijin jigs.
