Do you love big bluegill?

No easier way to enter the Micro-Jigging Methodology of panfishing then with tungsten… it’s heavy and compact nearly twice the weight of lead describe your technique and setups using tungsten. Pro's and Con's etc...

I too bought some tungsten jig heads on a closeout at Walmart last spring, but didn't use them much this summer because of the small hook and the incredibly small eye. Am going to need to carry a magnifying glass to thread the 2# Nona braid thru those eyes with my poor eyes at closeup distances. I do like the idea of the 60 degree hookup as opposed to the normal vertical jig set up.

I used these jigheads mostly this summer because of the nose hookup. 

The .7 gram size worked well but with the long hook it needs some body(piece of plastic) before tipping with Gulp waxie.
