Jigs for Sheepshead?

Saltwater Inshore Discussion
1

Anyone use the “bottom sweeper” style of jigs? If so, what’s been the most common weights and hook sizes you might use?

I’m considering buying a mold to pour some, and want to be sure I’m getting it to pour the correct range of weights and hook sizes. It doesn’t pour exact copies, just a similar jig.

How about also for Redfish or other inshore uses, are they used for anything else?

Thanks!

Cool, thanks!

They’re also used for Tog, but not sure they need to be as heavy here as what is used further north for them.

I know they’re used up around the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay and can be heavy.

The mold I’m looking at goes to 1.25 ounces.
