Jigs from TW - Any good ones? 2024
nocellcontracts reply :
My son bought me a gift card from TW and I'd like to get some jigs. I'd like a jig that will skip docks, come through laydowns, and stand up in a defensive position. What do you recommend from TW? Here's a link, thanks.

Check out the stuff on TW from Boss. Get the heads you want, then the skirts you want and put them together in combos you want and it's much cheaper than buying a pre-made factory jig, and Boss's quality is top notch.

Never assembled one... do you simply "feed" it onto the hook and push it up on the shank? The rubberband in the skirt will hold it fine?

Dirty Jigs No jack Flippin' and Pitchin' Jig. Great Jigs.
CJ reply :
I would look at Dirty Jigs and the Damiki Mamba jig. Both a little pricey though.

Dirty jigs and Santone jigs are usually really well recommended. They both have all the usual styles and tiers of quality and tonnnnns of colors to choose from.

Do these stand up in a defensive position when at rest? Here's a link...

The Santone swim jigs will actually stand up a bit, flat bottomed head, and of course are a nice swim jig. I had one tied on most of last year and generally fished them by bouncing them off the bottom. I have some videos I have posted on other threads that show how these stand up with some trailers. They also have stout hooks too.

Yes. I throw that jig in 3/8 or 1/2oz 90% of the time. If you're looking to drag a jig, go with a football head.

D&L Advantage Jig! It's a sleeper!
The Fisher reply :
They carry a lot of good jigs. War Eagle jigs are good and not too expensive. Go on and look at some of the reviews for different jigs.
WRB reply :
Every jig availble from TW are good, look at the casting jig category. Suppliers that can't keep up with demand or have high returns are dropped by TW.

PS, close look at Don Iovino products.

Buckeye jigs work well for me. Sometimes the rubber skirts are a game changer
RyneB reply :
Dirty jigs, but don't sleep on some Hack Attack jigs. They're mass produced, but they're an awesome jig.
sprint61 reply :
I use the boss heads and skirts can't beat them imo. The D&L jigs are good also, they are made here in Kentucky.
wisconsin heat reply :
Love the BOSS heads too. I really dig the Wood Walker. The Finesse Flip is great too; I have the Gary Klein Flipping jig and I'm not the biggest fan of it. The skirt sits on it kind of funny and it doesn't look the best, but that's me being nit-picky.

The site will not let me put in the jig name even if it is sold at Tackle Warehouse! Think out side of the box!

kickerfish1 reply :
Another vote for buying the heads and skirts separate and assembling. Part of what you pay for in a mass produced jig is labor and packaging materials. Like WW2Farmer noted buy the boss heads and skirts and put them together yourself.
If you look at the wood walker heads for example, sold in 4 packs for $6 and skirts sold in 5 packs for $3.5 that is about $10 bucks to make 4 jigs for a cost to you of about $2.50 per jig. Then look on their website for what jigs you can find for $2.50 a piece. (That's right, there aren't any)
jonnyblazex reply :
I have bought a lot of Booyah jigs from TW as well as A.T. (all terrain) tackle jigs. They are both yery good, and offer a design style to suite your needs, and wont break the bank, about $3 a piece. I agree with the Siebert jigs being very very nice, I have some and love them. But for TW those would be my choices from experience. There are so many brands out there it is mind boggling. I usually look for some cheaper priced ones, but keeping in mind not to sacrifice quality. The way I use jigs, they are going to get lost sooner than later, so Im not going to stock my box with jigs that cost more than $5 a piece. I catch a lot of bass on jigs like those mentioned above. The thing about some of the cheaper jigs is that the paint chips easily. If I can make it to about the end of the day, most all the paint is gone off the head, but I keep pounding the bass regardless, they don't seem to care a whole lot most times it dosent seem like. The jigs I have tried for sieberts are the toughest, and nicest paint I have ever seen. Durability is insane, and his jigs also don't break the bank either.
mprestonSEK reply :
Dirty Jigs are always a good choice. Don't overlook the Molting Craw color in the HP Flipping jig
kcdinkerz reply :
I assembly my own so can't help you with what jig to get but, the classic sale should be coming up so definitely wait for that. I would try youtubing the jigs these guys mentioned, sometimes tw has videos on the items when you click on it and don't forget the reviews at the bottom of the page as well
PitchinJigz reply :
This year I went with (new-tech) heads and Dirty Jigs skirts. We'll see how that goes. Both seem very high quality.

Am I correct to say the heads alone are $3.45? Did some checking on the New-Tech website and that is what it appeared to me. The heads look interesting but I have a hard time paying over $2.00 for a painted head with a weedguard. Have you used them much to comment on how they perform and come through cover?
On a side note I do like the Dirty Jigs skirts. Seems to be of very good quality compared to others I have used. I bough a few dozen 5 packs when they ran their Black Friday sale. Love the color selection and getting 5 skirts for $4 is a good value. I believe I paid under $3.50 a pack when they had their sale.

Yeah, the heads were a little expensive. Hopefully I won't regret paying that much for them. I'm a sucker for innovation and things that are different. They haven't gotten any use as of yet, so I can't comment on that. The only thing is I wish for a jig of that price they would use a heavier wire Gamakatsu instead of an Owner cutting point. But that's just my preference. They don't lie about those things standing up straight, though. Not that it matters as much as they say it does. We'll see as far as hookups go.
Side note: As you said, those Dirty Jigs skirts are awesome. I think those will be my new favorite skirts by far as long as they don't fall apart easily.

All Terrain Skip n Jig is a good one.

Megastrike jigs always stand straight up.
Revenge jigs are quality and primarily what I fish.
Skinny Bear makes great jigs as well.
USMC22 reply :
Anyone buying Tungsten Jig Heads somewhere and making their own? In New Hampshire we have a lead ban effective come June which is forcing me to sell off my Dirty Jigs... the majority unused (in Flea Market). I am now on the lookout for a replacement.

PM Mike at Siebert Outdoors. Tell him the head style, color, and hook preference and I am sure he could probably build some heads for you without the skirts.
JGillyFishing reply :
Some of my favorites are the Hack Attack, Terminator pro model jig(green pumpkin Orange is deadly), I just bought a couple of the new Booyah bank roll jig from BPS. Really excited to try them out. The design of the head stands up perfectly every time. Excellent design and some unique colors

X2. My favorite is watermelon red flake. The best.
I have n.u.-tech jigs and a few other more expensive jigs and honestly prefer the Skip N Jig over them.
