Lot of local jig head makers who I'm sure can make you some with whatever hook you prefer. I use facebook all the time will see what comes up or maybe check the trading post page on here!

Owner stand up in 1/8
Owner round ball in 1/8 or 1/16
or just use an Owner shaky head in 1/16 to 3/16

Try the new Nichols Toad Stool jig head.

Zman are weak.....I know...NO SURPRISE I thought you wanted finesse gear to be "weak"?? I throw mine on a 10 lb leader and they are plenty strong for that. With that being said I buy different ones now with a nice little weed guard.

With the NED rig a light wire hook is the deal. If you are straightening out hooks fishing the NED rig something in your set-up isn't right. Too heavy of rod or too stiff of drag. I have no issue fishing the Zman heads. I actually really like the red ones.

Owner is about to come out with one. They just announced it at ICAST. It looks identical to the zman one but a little bit stouter hook
