Jig hooks and jig heads: Swing Ned heads

A mushroom head hinged to the hook: the Ned rig's third build, and at the same time a swing head. The articulated joint lets the buoyant bait crawl and tumble on its own on a drag or slow swim, and the hook swings free when a fish has it.

Jig hooks and jig heads

Hooks whose shank bends at the eye so a head can be poured on: the bare jig hook, and weighted jig heads for soft plastics classified by head shape and build (ball in four builds, strolling jigs by mechanism, football, swing, stand-up, Ned in four builds, shaky, darter, swimbait, underspin, tube, weedless, grass), because each fishes differently; and the skirted jig itself, by head shape (casting, flipping, football, swim, finesse, punch).
