I used the Texas eye jig paired with a slam shady diesel minnow last week in the glades and had great success! Snook and Red love it!

Dr Juice or ProCure?

[@levigreen5509]

@@bottomlinebassin2001 i’ve found better success with procure because it covers the bait in sauce and is a lot stinkier, Dr. Juice goes into the bait but does not really change the plasticky feel or smell of the plastic

[@theangleraquarist]

Good for freshwater too!

[@adambaker9242]

This is my favorite jig.. now I know what the finess is for it just got better

[@MTZFishing]

Would like to see yall guys use a light or ultra light fishing gear

[@Jritchey1211]

I plan on doing more light tackle on the water videos through the Winter months.

Everyone calls this a Cheb rig
Comes from Poland as far as I know but mostly they don’t bother too much with the eyes
I fish them with a four to six inch pike or saltwater fly instead of soft plastic ..they work well
Z man version looks very nice quality 👍

These things r so damn good I use them every time I go out on the flats and get 20+ slot and upper slot reds almost every time

Lets see some underwater footage!

[@seizedcarcass8440]

I’m thinking of using these for the zman Ned shrimpz and zman crusteaz. I think it will slay redfish and flounder.

[@Saltstrong]

No doubt!

Justin TeXL - great - Bomber vs Z Man - TeXL on Original PowerPrawn thx for the suggestion

[@comfortablynumb9342]

I have the original Texas Eye jigs and I seem to have a bad hookup ratio. I get lots of bites but can't hook them or keep them hooked. A lot of the bites are from croakers and spots and tons of lizard fish, and those are hard to hook. A stiffer rod would probably help, and those thinner finesse hooks might be better. They should be fine with 10 lb test and light drag. Those lighter ones might be good with Z Man shrimp.

Oftentimes the plastic gets in the way of your hookset on these types of hooks.

[@miamiwax5504]

i wish they made these heavier up to 3/4 oz

[@markwallace1251]

This is good news 🤔

[@matthewsalyers4625]

Missing a lot of fish on these finesse hooks, even with the slam shady on it that has the weedless slot on the bottom, the lure isn't getting out of the way enough for a good hook up.

[@Saltstrong]

What rod are you using? The rod's power and action can play a big role in hookset performance as shown in this recent report from an awesome trout bite: www.saltstrong.com/articles/epic-seatrout-exploration-trip/
