Anyone have a recommendation for the appropriate jighead for using with the 6" Berkley Hollow Belly swimbait?

Checkout outlet baits and tackle they have some good deals on 7/0 8/0 and 10/0 swimbait hooks. They aren't jigheads buy they are weighted. Maybe worth the time to look at real quick.

You could try the 8/0 tube jig hook from Hippo Tackle. I use them for the 7 1/2" hollow tube swimbaits that Hippo makes.

Fin-Tech makes some large jig heads. Up to 10/0 if I remember right. Thorne Bros carries them.

Bait Rigs Esox Cobra jig heads are the best I have used. They come in 1/2 ounce to 1 and 1/2 ounce. I find they handle weeds much better than the normal swimbait jig heads. You do have to superglue the bodies on. I just wish they offered a 1/4 ounce model.

I have used Kalin's Ultimate Swim Bait Jighead & Kalin's Ultimate Bullet Jig. Both work good but I like the extra wobble that the swim bait jighead gives the bait.
