Another good option to the Biffle HH is the one made at Fork by Bayou Tackle called the Buggin Ball. It has a long shank hook that I like because it does not interfere with the hinging action between the hook eye and the head.

Our Wobble Head has a TroKar TK 120 4/0 hook (at the same price). Plus, we add UV reflection in our powder coat. Chapman used it quite a bit during his run to AOY last year. And, he would have won on the Alabama River if he could have gotten to his water on Sunday.

The hardhead jig heads used for the Biffle bugs seem to be the only option for the plastic baits...Are there other options? Texas Rigged,ShakeyHead,and believe it or not C.Rig.Tommy put's a little piece of foam in his,however I have did well without the foam.The Bug Rock's even the smaller Jr. size.

I like using the Bug Texas rigged along with the hardhead. Its the first bait I throw on my Texas Rigs. I am about to put out our version of the HH with Trokar hooks. I have tested these and the hookup with the Trokar is way better because a lot of the time you can't feel the bite and the sharp Trokar will hook the fish for you. I'm just working out pricing now but I think we will be less expensive than other HH with Trokar Hooks.

Fish Killer don't tell everyone our secrets! LOl Punisher works good for me! You can change the hooks out to what ever you need.
