I like a 3/8 oz jig with a Rage Bug for skipping. Ends up 1/2 oz total and on my 6'9" med power moderate action bait casting rod I have found that combo just works for me getting the bait to skip good with decent accuracy. I'm looking for 3/8 oz jig heads with light wire hooks to add skirts to and pair with Rage Bugs. What you got?

I like skipping docks with a V&M flipping jig but it doesn't have a light wire hook. For skipping into brush and under willows I like the V&M swim jig. That head design just comes over timber really well, doesn't get hung up as much as other jig head designs and it is easy to skip. V&M also makes a "skipping" jig but I like the two I mentioned better for skipping.
