Small banana jig heads..

[Jigmaker0421]

Im down in florida on vacation and i went to the bass pro down here and looked at some jigheads and they had some little1/16 and 1/8 oz banana heads i think maybe they are for yellowtail or bonefish but they had a saltwater hook on them, any of you guys seen or poured any like that with freshwater hooks?

Nope not me but i might have a mold for them . I never get a call for banana heads . Don't know why I keep the molds .Have to look and see if I have small ones out of curiosity .

If they have bait holder collars they're probably custom, since the Do-it Bananas have ball collars except for the discontinued ring-barb version designed for VMC Barbarians. All types bottomed out at 1/8 oz. size to the best of my knowledge.

Forgot, the similar design ball collar Do-it Sparkie goes down to 1/16 size. Designed for 60* EC 410-413 type hooks but can fit light wires with a bend in the shank to change the eye leg angle from 90* to approx 75*.

They are the most common type of jig here in south Fl. For fluke bodies, shrimp like doa's or gulp and for live shrimp. Most often used in 1/8 then 1/4oz. Flats fishing, gulf of mexico surf too'
