Never used that brand, or the Hali jigs, either, but I use homemade versions all the time, just made of any small spoon with a couple of the smallest size swivels attached.
They have worked for me on several species at several lakes. One of my favorite perch tactics if the action slows is to.jig them a lot, bouncing and pounding them on the bottom. Then just set it down so the bait (perch eyes or whatever) and chain are just sitting next to the spoon on the bottom. Leave it there a few seconds.. Perch will often suck the bait and hook up off the bottom, and you'll either see it in your springbobber, or hook them the next time you pick it up.
No secrets there, of course, but that seems to work a lot.
