Prices are super reasonable and has a bunch different size/weight options. http://swingoilbaits.com/SWING-JIG-SKU-227.htm I'll second that!
kjackson Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 1/16-ounce jigs are a good match as well--especially around docks.

Very limp, very strong and holds a knot a lot better than other smaller diameter line I've tried. I've thought about trying P-Line but just haven't gotten around to it. The "soft" I do not recommend. The green color is excellent in TR, rather similar to the Maxima green.

Ya I heard that the "Soft" version of YoZuri Hybrid is no good. I haven't tried it. I'll just stick to the regular. On another note I heard that guys didn't like the Power Pro Slick because is was "too soft" as well. I guess limpness is not always good. What did I just type? lol.

JE - I fished them last season and wasn't overly impressed. The tail didn't kick nearly as much as the GYCB. I had to reel a pinch faster to get some good action from them; on identical jigheads I was throwing GYCB grubs on. - The bags of élan tech grubs I had seemed like the tails were a bit too rigid. After not getting bit on them, I switched back to the GYCB and peaked some interest of fish again. - Maybe I just had a couple crappy bags; so hopefully dtrs has better luck with them.

They redesigned them for this year. Think gycb. http://www.tacklewarehouse.com/Z_Man_Grubz_6pk/descpage-ZMANGRB.html
