Not Hair Jigs

Featured Replies

Decided to put down the hair for a little while and give a try to tying up some silicone jigs.  I will say they are a little easier to tie than hair jigs, but I think I have put too many strands on these.  Some of you pros let me know what you think.

They all look great Bone-Headjig. I've a lot of success with that first one.

As far as strand count, you didn't mention what you have on these, but a higher strand count will slow the ROF. In my opinion, I like a higher strand count to start with. You can always cut the strands if need be to get the jig to fall faster.

Good luck with them.

Beautiful work love the one with blue in it!

Jigfishn10,

On the swim jigs I have not used more than 4 tabs......most of the ones I've done I use 3 to 3 1/2 tabs on the swims.

On the football heads it usually depends on the size of the head.  On 1/2 oz to 1oz I will use as many as 6 tabs but usually 4 1/2 to 5 tabs. 

I thinks most all of the tabs I've used are 22 to 25 strands.

8-) Nice work.

Bone Head,

  All those jigs are very nice. I see you are a very versatile person. I personally like a lot of skirting material on my bass jigs for the summer. As mentioned it slows down the fall of the jig. I got to say that the 4th pic is my favorite. I love that paint job

I really like those matte finished ones. I have a few matte finished Tabu jigs and they work well. Is it the paint job? Maybe :(

Nice!

I like that one with the blue too!

Bone-Head those are some awesome jigs....1 Ton footballs are my favorite. Nice patterns, way to match the hatch so to speak....
