    jighead size for bream?

    i know it depends on tidal flow and wind speed and stuff but say there was so no wind with a slow tidal flow or its changing or its windy and the wind is coming back at you what would you go for then?

    I would say it kind of depends what type of plastic you intend fishing with and how you want that presented to the fish... If I was using the prawns I would use a HWS jig head and let it get up close and sink slow, but if I was using the grubs in 3" etc and would want it to get to the lower setion of the water I would go with a 1/4. I guess it really depends on a few things and what your trying to achieve with the presentation of the SP? hope this helps.

    I think it depends on the angler and/or the ground you are fishing in. For me - rocky bottom then as light as possible and for sandy bottom - as light as possible.:wink:
    1/12 to 1/16th oz jighead for no current/no wind. 1/8th oz if a little breeze. If a lot of breeze, then usually find a different place to fish.
