Midgeman Posted February 24, 2006 Posted February 24, 2006 I went out to a stream on my farm today to test some new tube jig heads that I've been making. I was actually just trying out various weights and tube sizes to see what works best when WHAM!!!... a nice little largemouth decided she would like to sample Earthworms/MicroMunch Tackles' 3.25" tube. She hit in slack water and took off in the swift current, great fight! I love these tube jigs, (I'll attach ina nother post) I can adjust the weight up and down the shank. Slide it towards the head if you want a faster fall, slide it back if you want a slow horizontal flutter. I just got some Mustad Black Nickel hooks in various sizes and eye angles and am very excited to start pouring on them. So far, the 90 degree angle seems to work the best, a ton of action as it falls and darts when twiched. Wasnt even looking to catch a fish today...just a bonus! Aint life grand???!!! Quote
nwgabassmaster Posted February 24, 2006 Posted February 24, 2006 That is a gorgeous bass, bro! Can't wait to see the pic of the head that you make. Good fish. Quote
nwgabassmaster Posted February 24, 2006 Posted February 24, 2006 That is a sweet looking tube head! How quickly can you make one? Any plans to sell them? Quote
Midgeman Posted February 24, 2006 Author Posted February 24, 2006 That is a sweet looking tube head! How quickly can you make one? Any plans to sell them? Thanks! I can crank em out pretty quick. Im excited to make them on the Mustad 90 degree bln jig hook. Ive found one thats 1/4" longer than the standard 32746bln. No plans to sell them really, let me know if you want some to try out. Give me a PM and I will shoot you my email! Quote
