Wolfram fiskas have sticky sharp hooks and thats what i look for in a jig along with clear hook eyes,however i have been using amped jigs the last few years and are close to fiskas without the hefty price.

Widow Maker or Fiskas

How are the hooks on those widow makers? They have a huge variety of nice looking jigs but I don't want to order a bunch unless I know the hooks are great

Been ordering tungsten jigs from Kenders Outdoors lately.  They have some really good paint and the hooks are sticky sharp.  Still have not found one with a painted eye.

Acme, Frostbite, VMC, and quit frankly the eagle claw 2 packs at walmart are good jigs. i have good luck with all of them. Eagle claws here and there may need a lick or 2 with a file to get them to "super sticky" but for 98 cents a head its worth it to me.
Its called PUBLIC land.... don't get mad if someone else is fishing there.

They are sticky sharp comparable to the Fiskas, and to be honest they are easier for me to find in NE Indiana than the Fiskas are.

I just order my first couple of jigs from Kenders on Saturday and will hopefully get to test them out this weekend.

“Your Bobbers Down” along with others already mentioned. All are great, but now have too big of a collection to choose from and can’t seem to be able to stop ordering more. I do have them in my arsenal for open water also with good success thru the years.

Amped, they have some nice jigs. I use them in the summer too. They are a sponsor on here and have done some great deals for us on Lithium batteries. Gotta support our people.

J&S Custom jigs has some really nice epoxy jigs but they are a bit tough to get ahold of. Yourbobbersdown, CJ&S, Ampedoutdoors, and Larsonsqualityjigs are all aewsome. There are a couple of upstarts I have been seeing on facebook as far as innovation goes, but I'm no jig expert. Dubs, This-n-that, and there was another I havent seen that I can't think of at the moment but their jigs looked pretty sweet as well.
