Overview
The Gamakatsu Skip Gap Shaky Head has the unique Skip Gap bend that holds your bait securely to the hook. You'll have the confidence knowing that there are no oversize barbs that can tear apart a small finesse worm. The unique bend lends itself to simplicity, and eliminates problematic spring locks.

Comments: I haven't tried every shakey head on the market, but I've tried enough to know that this one is my pick. Skips well for me and I'm not that great at skipping. Also a great head for swimming the Zoom Ultra Vibe Speed Worm. On a recent trip to the Apalachicola River I brought all 16 Bass, both Largemouths and Alabama Spots that bit: if you set the hook, fish stay pinned.

Comments: I love these. Before you put a bait on them you can set them down on a non flat surface(mud or sand) and they literally will stand up outside the water. The balance is amazing. Gamakatsu please make a Ned head like these. Flat bottom and fit a 2.75in ned worm. This would make for a nice weedless ned head and when it comes to elaztech i prefer burying the hook point rather than skin hook with a EWG.

Comments: Best hookup ratio of any shakey head design I've ever used (and i've probably tried over 20 different brands/designs). The hook stays sharp catch after catch and the design allows you to get quite a few catches out of one plastic worm. This thing may look funny, but dang does it stick them, and keep them on. You won't be disappointed!

Comments: My favorite shaky head. Super easy to rig and holds the worm straight and firm. Best hook on any shaky head I've used. Does not flex significantly like others, is super sharp and comes through the plastic easily on bites. I rarely miss a hookup or lose a fish with these. Can't say that about many others I've used. Gammy just needs to make a black in addition to the brown and green.

Comments: Good Hook and stays sharp. I have caught some big fish over 6lbs with no issue but don't use to heavy of line or they will bend some. I haven't lost a fish from it yet but just be careful. Overall 4/5

Comments: I have used these for a while now and really like the design and the hooks. Unfortunately the paint just comes off of them too easily if fishing in or near rocks at all. I am now searching for a new favorite shakey head jig just due to the paint coming off so easily.

Comments: Great shakeyhead with a good gap between hook point and hook eye. Perfeck for straight worms and small creatures. The only warning I have is they will bend some. I never lost a fish over it but just be careful and use slightly lighter tackle. I give it 4/5.

Comments: this is by far the best hook for a senko type worm on a shakey head

Comments: I've tried a ton of different shaky head jigs and these are by far my favorite. Ultra sharp hooks, holds your plastic really well, and the paint stays on pretty strong.
