You need something with a good collar, because super glue doesn't stick to the oily fish scent that the Ronz tails have in them.

I wonder if you got a bad lot of hooks or something. I havent had any problems with the hooks yet. Ive only used the 3-5oz models, maybe the smaller ones are different.

I had a hook straighten out on the 3/4 Ronz head as well. Also had the same thing happen on Kalins. For what I have found out there for 3/4 ounce jig heads, the Ronz and Kalins have been the best quality but have had the hook bend on a heavy fish with moderate drag. Maybe a change will be made or another product will come about.

I was thinking of trying the one's andrus makes that are intended to tie bucktails on (the smiling bill type). The ones joe has don't seam to have a big enough collar. maybe I'll get a mold and play around this winter with drilling out a 3/4 oz mold to accept a 7/0 or 8/0 hook.
I haven't tried the heavier ronz heads so they may have stronger hooks, just way too heavy for where I fish.
