Jig hooks and jig heads: Texas-rigged Ned heads

A mushroom head cast on an offset / EWG hook, so the stick bait is Texas-rigged with the point buried: weedless without any guard, for the heaviest cover a Ned rig goes into.

ItemDetail
HookSize 1 EWG (Z-Man NedlockZ EWG, VMC hook) or offset shank; keeper moulded on the head
Weight1/15–1/5 oz (1.9–5.7 g)

BaitsBuoyant stick baits, small creatures
Trade-offStands up a little less and needs a firmer hook set than an exposed hook

Because the weight sits on an offset hook, this head is also one of the weighted Texas hooks: it is listed there too.

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).
