The head is fish-shaped and carries 3D eyes, and that is not decoration: predators aim at the eye and head of a baitfish, so the head acts as a strike target and pulls attacks onto the hook rather than the tail of the plastic. A sharp spike keeper with dual barbs bites into ElaZtech and stops the bait sliding down the shank. Hooks run in the 3\/0 to 4\/0 range in a light-to-medium wire, strong enough for real fish yet fine enough to penetrate on moderate tackle. Three weights, 1\/8 oz, 1\/4 oz and 3\/8 oz, cover shallow flats to moving water and deeper edges. Alongside the other two heads in the range the division is simple: Finesse ShroomZ is the light-wire mushroom head for the Ned rig, Shaky HeadZ is the stand-up head for shaking a finesse worm on the bottom, and JigheadZ is the open-water swimming head for paddle tails, jerk shads and minnow bodies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFish-shaped head with 3D eyes that acts as a strike target\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHook sizes 3\/0 and 4\/0 in a light-to-medium wire\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSharp spike keeper with dual barbs that locks ElaZtech plastics in place\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree weights: 1\/8 oz, 1\/4 oz and 3\/8 oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFour finishes: Red, Chartreuse, Pearl and Unpainted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuits paddle-tail swimbaits, jerk shads and minnow-profile soft plastics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow To Fish It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStraight swim\u003c\/strong\u003e — Rig a paddle tail, cast, count the jig down to the level fish are holding, then wind slowly and steadily so the tail keeps thumping.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLift and drop\u003c\/strong\u003e — Raise the rod tip to about 10 o'clock and let the jig flutter back on a semi-slack line.
