The shape looks very similar to a jig that a friend of my father's used to make in a homemade mold.. They were awesome.. When you jerk them they arch through the water vs. a conventional jig that jerks on a straight 45 degree angle..

These are pretty big (smallest is 3/8 oz.), but could be good for smallies and pike..

Just curious..

I have a few . A 1oz & a 3/4 oz . Caught a few fish at Niagra bar on thema few years back . ( lakers ) Don't know how they would be on Pike or Musky. I use to go to the Reidue river in canada & like to jig the brigde s with My hand tied buctails . I would take a 1/2 oz round head jig & file the bottom flat with a rasp. Brought it down to 5/16 or 3/8 oz . Tied it in perch or black or brown & caught Musky Wallys & Smallys on them. Same thing in upper Niagra . Also poured my own head to put a O shaugnesy 3/0 hook .

Im fairly familiar with the jig in question as well.....I also know where to find some that are very similar and much more avalable.

Where can I find the jigs you are referencing? Do they come in smaller sizes?
