    Default What jigheads show up best on livescope?


    I get to thinking sometimes and it usually costs me to test the theories.....
    I was thinking that maybe a sausage head style jig head would show up better due to it being wide in the front as its slowly being reeled towards you. Am I on the right path? Has anyone tried that?

    Thanks,
    Chris

    Would those show up better than regular jigs on a flasher too?

    I have no problems seeing my heads and have used various heads from round to hatchet to pill head to egghead and beyond and haven’t really haven’t noticed one standing out more than the other. They all stand out as much as the fish do. I fish 1/16 to 1/4oz and naturally the bigger the better it shows up. I hear claims of some heads designed to show up better but am skeptical.

    Your on the right track, but keep in mind that for one, a rounded style head will not reflect as well as a flat surface, and you will be using more weight and size to gain the surface area you need for reflection.
    The scope eye heads have a flat side on them, and also we use a metallic flat eye on then to gain reflection. It helps alot. With a little practice using the scope, you will be able to dial in on them.
