Anyone ever used or have a opinion of these new jigs?

Yes I have used the jig X and it is a very good jig! It is the reel weedless jig! And the knot is not hard at all to tie. I fish lakes that have alot of weeds, and I like to swim this jig because it is so weedless! And there tubes are real cool too.I like the tubes because they are alittle thinner than mose tubes and the hole at the end of the tube is small that if you put a rattle in it will not come out when you cast! :o :-?

Yes I like them, I have all the colors and weights, though only have caught fish on the blue/black.

I have some. I like the way they fish, and catch but, I do have a little problem tying that knot.  I am just not that great at tying knots. I use nothing but the palomar for everything else.

I like the way you can fish it around the rocks.  I find you have to retie less often.  Have not lost one yet.

As for tying that knot, just tie it 4 or 5 times  and the more you tie it the easyer it becomes, just like any other knot! I can tie that knot now in no time. :o

I just got some from Brad (JBC Outfitters - Thanks for the fantastic service!) and have been toying with them here at cabin fever central.  I've found another knot that works well; once I perfect it, I'll post directions.  I really like the design of the Jig X.  The construction is top-notch, too.

The only concern I have is with the rattles.  Anyone had trouble keeping the rattles on during heavy fishing situations?  I haven't fished them yet...  The rattle collar seems to hold them tightly, but I can see a head-shaking LMB whipping that thing into submission possibly.

I did not have any problems with the rattles coming off, and I pulled in alot of bass with this jig! :o

Good deal!  I'm ready to get these in the mouths of some tourney-winning bass over here.  Water's a bit hard yet for the boat...!
