    Default 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.

    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.

    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.

    About 2 months back I acquired some Gekkabijin jig heads that I wish had never received. One of my nephews.....who loved to catch and eat crappie more than anyone I ever knew....passed away at the age of 63. Far too young to go. He had told his younger brother to give me the jig heads along with his like new Tict Rockin’ Drift rod....Daiwa Certate reel. The jig heads I will use but the rod and reel will most likely stay on display. I am on a constant hunt for a jig head equal to the Gekkabijin but until now I have not found it. I have tried about 8 different brands....types. The latest I tried were the Decoy Aji Drive. The ones I have tried are very good...but not as good as the Gekkabijin. I will continue my search and if I find one as good I will let folks know.

    Regards
