I called Oldhams today to order their Surelock Jig Heads and was told that they no longer have them available. Terry said that he had an elderly couple that made them for him and got out of the business. I used them for years and found them to work extremely well.
Does anyone know of a good substitute ?????????????

Good things come to those who bait.
If you liked Oldham's Surelocks .... you'll really like the V-wing weedless jighead from Paul Mullins (aka Grousefly) of P&S Custom Tackle ... shown here with the brush style weedless jighead, that he also makes :Originally Posted by Grillgod
These two are 1/16oz ballhead jigs w/#2 gold hooks ... but, Paul can make you some other variations (head weight/hook size/hook color). Just contact him and see what he can do for you .... [email protected]
The weedless sell (to Crappie.com members) for $0.25 each for less than 100 -- or $20 per 100 ---- just let him know that you're a Crappie.com member !!
I've used Oldham's Surelocks for, probably, 20years +/- .... they worked fine, as long as the wire loop didn't get bent up or broken. With the V-wings ... that worry is over !! And you, also, don't have to constantly be checking to see if the wire loop is under the hook point

NO, they are not the same !! The Screwlocks are more of a Bass jighead (bigger weight head/bigger hook). Even the one's Terry Oldham makes with a wire loop guard, that are "insert" type heads, come with the larger hooks. With his Crappie jighead makers gone ... I think he's going strictly Bass, now.Originally Posted by GRIZZ
