Last year I used a 14 oz gold hammered Diamond jig
Purchased at Cancun Petes. I have all kind of fancy jigs but the simple is better sometime. Actually hooked up 3 bigeyes on that jig!

Stingo PBJ's are very effective. Consider heavier weights based on conditions, current etc..

Stingo PBJ's, flat hammered diamond jigs and metallic sardines. Had a lot of success with gold jigs. They produce better than silver at times.

hundreds of diff jigs out there they all catch when the fish are biting the jigs, here are some of the most proven and popular as already mentioned: gold or silver hammered diamond jigs
shimano butterfly classic or flat sided
gold or silver sting-o PBJ
metallic sardine green or pink
Yozuri Hydrometal (this is the half fish half squid looking one-- hot last season)
