I just picked up some of these from walmart. It has a shaky head football lead weight attached to a worm hook.

I know I am behind on times, but this seems genius and something that would work with many methods.

I got the 1/2 ounce and plan on pitching it like a jig with a brush hog attached.

I was thinking, you could attach any kind of plastic on it and fish it shallow, or deep?

Couldnt you buy one of these in the 3/4 to 1oz, and fish a large 10-12" worm at night?

Or, get a 1oz or so and fish it deep where you normally drag a carolina rig out deep? This would just be so much easier to rig up.

I was just wondering on some ideas you guys have done with these setups.

IMO you could do all of the above. There ain't no right or wrong way with them...kinda like a jig.

I have them that are just perfect for bigger plastics. Sizes 1/8, 3/16 and 1/4 come with a very stout off set 4/0 Gama Hook. The 3/8, 1/2 and 3/4 oz come with the same hook only in a 6/0. Sell a ton of them and use them myself. Perfect for floating all your bigger plastics.

I also do a couple light wire Shake Heads. One with a Spring and the other with a Solid Bait Keeper. Here are pictures of all 3. Can see them and some of the other things I do on my web site also.

Thanks and please feel free to give me a shout if there is anything I can help with.
