Hey Guys
Went into my local tackle shop here in brissy today and picked up a couple of packs of TT jigheads for the Gold coast round next week. Neways when i opened a super pack of 1/16th #2 jigheads i was pissed off when i found out that they were actually #1 sized jigheads.
Tackle Tactics offer great jigheads of exceptional quality and this is probably a one off thing but i was wondering if anyone else has experienced the same problem before.
Cheers

Nope. Just a badly packed packet I guess.

And anyways, a good lesson learnt........ always check.

Change to the Berkley Nitro's they have the weight stamped on them and you get an extra jig for the money ;) better value all round :cool:

Most TT's do have the weights on the side of the jigheads..

plus I've found TT's & nitro work out to be the same money per jighead..

TT have the weight and size of hooks on the packet just as Berkley Nitros.

Difference, TT weights are actually more true that Nitros. So, for example, if you have been using 1/8 TT's, if you do go to Nitro's, you may find you'll have to fish 1/6oz weight to get the same weight.

Better value??? Depends where you are. By far here where I am, TT"s are by far better value.

I was tempted to start using nitro jigheads after Matty Fraser gave me some free jigs at the tweed round but i stayed true to TT. Anyways today i took the pack back to the tackle shop and they were happy to replace the packet with the correct jigheads. :D :D
