I have used these a few times, but only the ones sold at Walmart. They have always been 1/4 ounce and white plus another natural color only. Your post led me to find them at Tackle Warehouse and Bass Pro shops in many different weights and colors. That's a good way to go!
The CrawFatty trailer looks big on it. But the fish could find the substantial hook even with that, and with the 1/16 and 1/8 jigs, the fall rate and buoyancy would be great.

Like with many jigs, the skirts don't hold up in storage. So, I may stock up next spring.

Thanks for the tip!

I never used a sinker stop with a Texas rig before, but now rig it that way with creature, crawbait or plastic worms.
