Arkie head, most versatile on the planet... You can flip it, pitch it, swim it, or drag it!

Ball Head (Finesse) and Arkie Head (flipping) are my top 2, but I throw all 4 of the ones listed above plus a grass jig pretty regularly.

Arkie head, most versatile on the planet... You can flip it, pitch it, swim it, or drag it! +1. definetly the most versatile jig style IMHO. I also throw a lot of finesse jigs. I throw football jigs 3rd. I love to throw a swim jigs where ever I find grass, and especially grass/rock transitions. I'm not as confident in flipping jigs so I don't throw them as much, but when I get back to the states, I plan to do a lot of flipping and pitching with jigs.

I throw a fliipin jig most of the time. I really wish I could go out with someone who threw a swim jig. Always wanted to learn that style.

Arkie head, most versatile on the planet... You can flip it, pitch it, swim it, or drag it! arkie head most of the time because i beat the banks and docks alot. the only time ill take this jig off is if im fishing deep then ill tie on a heavy fball head. Swim jig when they're in the grass.
