Im guessin it would probly work just as well as anything else. The main reason, from what I gather, for the flexible "bill" is to limit hangups. So this or any other material would work, its just a matter of gettin it secured to the head.

Flabaspond- I dont cast my own heads, I just use a generic Northland Fireball style jig that I get from a local shop. I like to use short shanks because it allows for more of the plastic to swim. Again, any jig head would probly work though. The key is a cross lock snap or even a split ring to allow it to swim freely.
