  1. 100 mm size seems the best overall. Allen
  2. Yo-Zuri is my guess.
  3. Chigger craws and Super chunks are what I am using 90% of the time. Allen
  4. If I click on the lines it takes me to the pics. Nice work as usual, planning on building a rod or two this winter. Allen

    Sex Panther by Odeon, 60% of the time it works every time. Allen
  6. Yes, you can buy the heads at a few places: jannsnetcraft.com barlowstackle.com lurepartsonline.com fishingskirts.com Allen
  7. I bought those heads from Lurepartsonline. Allen
  8. Let me add in quality control to this thread as I was a.....forgot how to use English's the other day buying my daughter soccer cleats. While my wife and daughter were shopping for cleats I decided to check out the fishing section. When I looked at the spinnerbait and jigs they generally looked like s**t. Skirt material all lumped up on one side or the skirt not fully on the bait. I have a caveat to that as the Missle baits jigs all looked good. To be honest until last weekend I did not know what a store bought jig cost since I quit buying them in about 2005. Looking at some of those jigs on the rack for $4.99 I don't know how someone sleeps at night charging those prices. Allen

    Lurepartsonline makes a double wire heads. Allen
  10. The top color "Crawdad" is the main skirt I use on football jigs paired with a GP trailer. Allen
  11. I was just trying to come up with something that matches the jig. Camera can't capture the purple highlite very well. Allen
  12. Black, brown, and green Pumpkin are my 3 primary colors. I add some accent colors when I feel like it will help. Allen
  13. Black and purple jig that I made with a matching trailer. It is hard to see the purple highlite in the trailer as it was hard to photograph. Allen Pic shows the trailer better. Black with purple highlite and PB&J trailers.
  14. Look into the vise I posted above as it is $15 and uses a suction cup. I wire my jigs at the kitchen counter or on a outside glass table. Allen
  15. My first write up so there was bound to be an issue. Once I get my shop set up I plan on making videos. Being a visual learner I can learn more in a 15 minute video than I can reading a bunch of articles. Allen
  16. I do two wraps but I can see where I am missing a pic in the sequence. Bend the wire in a horseshoe and place it over the jig points down, then pull them up and around to the top. Slowly pull the two ends with the pliers until tight then start twisting. My wraps look like a split ring with the two cut ends twisted together. Allen
  17. I have finally learned some discipline on buying lures. After replacing new lures that I never fished with newer lures I bought it became ridiculous. Now I just buy known productive lures on sale and tackle making supplies. If I find something that really interests me I buy it but no more bulk purchases of the latest bait. Allen
  18. Not my first choice but whether or not it's worth the money is up to you. When I was a broke teenager I would say no because of the cost. Now that I am in my 40's time on the water is more valuable than the cost of lures. I am going to spend $20 on a lure that runs right as opposed to a $3 lure that I have to spend an hour tuning. Allen
  19. Are we still looking to do this? Allen
  20. I use them but not as much as other trailers for jigs. Where I use them is if I am unsure of the swimjig versus dragging jig bite. They can be used as either so I just use them as a search bait trailer. Allen
  21. A practical solution to the problem. Allen
  22. I will check and see if I have anymore and if I do you can have them for shipping. Allen
  23. They are on back order. Allen
  24. My secret weapon, I throw 5 of them on a A-Rig that I pitch to laydowns. Allen
  25. The Mike Long signature series drop shot! Man I have been waiting on this baby to arrive for what seems like forever. Allen
