Berkley Jig heads

[marty_87]

Hey,

Just wondering if many of you guys use berkley jigheads??

Cheers

[youngfisherman]

Yeah! Pretty much the only jigheads I use.. The Atomic "Seekerz" range of jigheads are good quality too and well worth a look at ;)

do you mean the nitro range or just the plain berkley range??
i use nitros a lot and have caught me some decent fish.

I use them a lot.

Good jig heads for the money.

[marty_87]

Just the plain ones with the ball head. The ones that big w sells for like $4.50 a pack.

[youngfisherman]

Oh, well in that case no. Spend a few extra bucks and get some nitro's ;)

Dude the berkleys are more then fine. Another good option are the squidgy round heads.

Especially if your not looking for a darter head like the nitro ones.

i love the squidgy jig heads cheap as chips and they do the job well. nitro are also good but i seem to hook alot more fish with the squidgy jigheads.

+1, i find some of the normal berkleys have harpoon sized hooks... Nitros or squidgy JH's are the go for me (unless chasing lizards)

maybe get a smaller size then? They do come in a wide range of hook sizes.

I am with you all the way Paps. Love the berkley ball head jigheads. You can afford to stock up on them and not feel too guilty.

I mean the guage mate... In saying that though, my local W now has berkley rounds with a finer guage, mixed in with the thicker guage packets. . so im not sure if it is old stock???

I'm a big fan of the normal berkley jig heads. Great price and seem to be good quality.

[GRIM BREAM]

I get the Nitro heads from big w and kmart..owner hooks cant go wrong..

[creek bandit]

I use the cheap berkeley powerjig jig heads from big w . Great value an good range of sizes and weights. I have straitened the hooks on squidgie jig heads and destroyed to many plastics on the retainer hooks. I also love the nitros and the tt's . Looking foreward to trying the atomic range of jig heads soon.

The berkley ball heads are good and they have (or had) a darter head as well. When you go to the really heavy weights there are some thicker wire ones there but up to about a 1/8th are pretty good value really with a good range of weights and hook sizes as well.

[alexczarn]

Yup I use them most of the time.

I "stock up" when they're on sale and "top up" when they're not:).

If I have had an issue with their quality - I dont remember it - but I dont put that much stress on them. Mainly fresh water and pinkies.

Topped up on 1/32's in various styles last night.

I use them all the time, Cant beat them for the price, Wish they had more weights for sale at my local store though.

[Daiwarockz]

big W sells them and really cheap:eek:
