  2. YEP......I think I like the first one the best too. They both look great. That is very close to one that I did for a swim jig. Shad patterns on swim jigs and football heads have been doing very well this year. Once again very nice job.
  3. FL_Sharpshooter, I have tied a ton of jigs similar to that this year. It has been a very hot lure for me this spring. I used a picasso (now out of buis.) shake-e head standup football head jigs. They have a wire keeper instead of lead that can be moved out of the way while tying. Take a look at the spot remover shakey head too they stand up pretty well too. The skirt I was tying on is more of a finesse skirt than a full jig skirt. I did not worry about a weed guard because I was rigging them texas (or shakey) style. The other reason I liked picasso is that they are the only shakey jigs made in 1oz.
  4. I think you are nailing the baitfish patterns........How about a threadfin shad next....... ;D ;D ;D
  5. Rain or shine.....right Kent........
  6. Jiggin_it, If you want the best maps try getting...... Navionics HotMaps Explorer Powered by Fugawi (Windows 7/Vista/XP). It cost $20 and you get to pick one free detailed map. You can buy other maps for other lake too. I think that each map is about $20. This has great detail and will give you the exact GPS locations of any waypoints you create. You can then enter them into a gps and go right to your spot. You can also print sections of the map. I plan on going to Pickwick next Sat. and drive thru Ramer coming and going. Let me know if you want to meet up and I can show ya what I have.
  7. Backwater4, download a simple program for basic pic edits..... www.irfanview.com The first thing I think you need is to make the picture larger. This program will do it.....very easy. As far as taking good pics Nate and JFranco could help with that......but first we need to get it big enough to tell if it is bad or not. Give me a call if you need some help with it. If you don't have my number anymore send me a pm and I'll send it to ya again.

    Fuzzy Grub is dead on........Cadman's jig heads could catch fish with nothing on them. I just might start using them for catfishing......How do think they would look with a big chunk of liver hangin off the hook.
  9. I like the long tail you put on some of those......the ones with the long tails would you add a trailer to those or is that take the place of using a trailer.
