Consider adding a grub grip wire to any size jigs:Quote:
People I know in OK are either harping about a tough plastic that they can use all day or pushing soft bait companies that don’t last for crap. All I want is a hard body with a medium tail. Hard body allows plastic to stay on keeper all day if needed and medium tail gives you a happy medium without being bitten off.

Won't use a jighead without the wire and holds the lure no matter its softness:

The above will allow you to catch over 2 dozen fish on the same lure.
Rarely do I have a tail bit off except by small bass and sunfish.
