Plano had an Instagram post showcasing this product. In the pictures u can CLEARLY see how the jigs weedgaurds had been permanently pressed down and to the side virtually ruining the jigs IMO. It is absolutely perplexing how they apparently think that is acceptable. I replied and you can see their response. I need to call. One of the pics on Instagram showing the damage.

Thanks Tom. I just laid them out and will take a closer look. I appreciate your input.

Ok, thanks Deleted. Just was curious if there was anything obvious. I plan on fishing em' so time will tell. About all I threw when I was younger was spinnerbaits but have been trying so many other techniques I haven't fished them for years.

Most of my Spinnerbaits are old Terminators and I'm unsure if they are the Titanium T-1 version or not. Is there a way to identify them?

Thanks for posting this. I am ready to try some 110JR's and was curious on hook size. I have some ST-36 #8'S in case I accidentally bend one but I plan on fishing with lighter gear so hopefully that won't happen!

Was thinking the exact same thing. I know it's been discussed in this thread. Best luck whatever you decide.

Didn't make any sense to me neither. I mean I have no idea how they could overlook it. I'm wondering if anyone uses the spinnerbait edge box for jigs? It's thicker but only comes in 3700 size. I've seen pics of someone that's done it, its an option im still considering.

Absolutely, that's a no brainer and a good deal since prices have gone up on the newer HMG'S. Congrats.

In regards to weedgaurds I have trimmed from time to time but not always. Some are just way to long...like on some compact jigs. In regards to thickness, unfortunately they are the same. I was aware of this problem, but i didn't realize how bad it was. Then i seen some on YouTube after they had been in one for an extended period of time and i don't want all my brand new jigs to look like that.

I was really disappointed as well. No idea why they didn't make it thicker. It will push your weedgaurd down onto the hook permanently. I only have 2 chatterbaits with the 2 wire weedgaurds.

I just bought one last week. Bought mine for standard 3/8 Oz flipping jigs but it smashes the weedgaurd down something terrible so my only option was to put my chatterbaits in there. It comes with 4 rows that fit 11 baits per row. However as you can see I could only use 3 rows so a maximum of 33. It's not allowing me to attach pic?

Thanks, yeah I would definitely pay the extra. Currently have some older jigs with weak bands.

You answered for me...too addictive. I have WAAAY too many time consuming hobbies to add this to the list!?? I know they are a sponsor, ive seen them mentioned many many times and I respect that. I know North Star was bought by somebody else i read somewhere. I'm sure I will try Seiberts someday. To each there own. Just simply sharing my impression.

It's odd to me that none of the tackle companies offer a swim jig in a frog flavor. What gives?

"Just a side note I also have Tatula MH in 6’10 and 7’1. I feel both the tip a little bit soft for 3/8oz jig and up." Hmmmm, didn'texpect to hear that. Not sure what to think. Thanks for the feedback.

I really appreciate the feedback everyone.

I like the thought of longer casts with the longer rod but I'm wondering if I will be giving up much accuracy.

I'm primarily a bank fishermen and am buying a new rod primarily for throwing 3/8 Oz jigs. I will be buying a new Tatula in 6'10MHF or 7'3"MHF. Most of my rods are 6'6" with a few 7'. I'm trying to understand the pros and cons in the 5" difference. I appreciate any input or advice. I should add, won't be flipping or pitching much....mostly casting.

I can't seem to stop buying jigs and just wanted to share an experience. I have been buying 6th Sense Divine, Beast Coast Tungsten, Dirty Jigs SC Compacts. Today I received my package from North Star baits as I orded 8 of the Black Series and 6 Black Football. I am super impressed with the quality out of the package! Wire ties look fantastic, the skirts are top notch quality and the heads look fantastic. I can't wait to get these wet & fish em'!!! P.S. I've tried to attach pics but it keeps saying File too Big

Im BEST at buying more lures than I could ever use in 3 lifetimes!?

Thats a really nice idea MickD

I knew that was coming. I understand what you are saying. I try to never give Walmart my money...how about that?

I will never ever buy any Ozark Trail products. All they do is copy from real fishing companies that I would rather give my money too.

Not really, it was just a simple question as I was thinking of picking one up locally for my son if it worked equally as well. I have one trom TW already. Just thought maybe someone might have one and could answer.

Does anyone use one of these? I know they are made for the hexagonal Ocho, but my question is do they work ok with regular Yamamoto 5" Senkos or is it a PIA?
