I am looking to order some more jig heads like the one below but can’t find them. I thought they were Northland brand from Cabela’s a couple of decades ago.

Would a Flats/Bonefish type jig work?

Would DIY be an option? Could be a fun project.

Google skimmer jig heads and look those over.

The Flats jig head looks right but is too stout. I am looking for a 1/8 oz jig head with a smaller wire hook for Sandbass.
I have absolutely zero interest in melting lead for jig heads.
