i bought some hackle but its only 5-7in. hope its long enough. I will let you all know. thanks for your imput

I have been tying my ledge jigs using rabbit zonker strips/bucktail but would like to add a feather or two. I can't tell by looking at pictures on the interweb what kind of feather's I should buy. Could someone tell me what type of feather i should use. Probably going to purchase from Jans/Barlows/o...

I would add a larger minnow colored hair jig for snapping off the bottom

For regular swim jigs I use a keitech easy shiner swim bait for shad imitations such as the silver flash or pro blue, but for sunfish imitations I use a regular not fat swim impact in the pro special color, simply because they don't make that color in the easy. I know a lot of people just use a simp...

It's hard to find good hair jigs that don't go for 9 bucks a pop. I make hair jigs, If you like I could send you some pic's to see what you think. send me a pm if your interested.

Some of one tens float a bit fast when the water is super cold or 60+. I put a tiny split shot on a bend of 1 of the front hooks which keeps the bait in a downward position. I definitely get more strikes especially when those 20 second pauses are necessary. I love jerk season, it comes and goes too ...

Yeah, I made about 25 this winter. I've been making jigs w/ Bucktails and fox for years but wanted to expand. I made many finesse jigs with maribou under silicone several bucktail, maribou/ silicone jigs on light.football heads and a few buck/maribou swimjigs. I also made some big musky jigs for a f...

I have been tying my own jigs for years. I have been tying bucktail under silicone for most of those years. Recently, I've discovered his YouTube videos. I have learned so much about using alternatives and have been creating some really nice jigs that I hope will be very successful this spring for t...

I got a bunch of 6th sense 110's made up in a discontinued MB 110 color that you can't buy on e-bay for less than a 100$. Mossback/YFT. the color is nearly dead on and the bait is nearly identical to the real deal 110.

Ham Solo, that's funny. I fish a swim jig from 65* to 75*. I have done best, fishing them through lay down's and sprarse weeds in clear/shallow water 2-8ft. I tie my own and use an olive shad pattern(matches the local minnows) and a gill color thats green/blue and orange. I hang a 4in keitech ez shi...

You could probably use the same rig you do for a double fluke rig, which I love to throw. its a 14in line tied on a swivel above a swivel tied to the main line which is around 18-20in. If your fishing your senko's wacky, the hooks will foul, but if your looking to fish them weedless they'll fish nic...

SSHHHH!!!! Hair jigs haven't worked since the 70's

the lucky craft RC's, although they are so duplicated its easy to find replacements. Although all baits that were/are killers have been duplicated.

I have always relied on plastics more than jigs in summer, besides throwing heavy football jigs to deep structure, does anyone stay with jigs in summer or am i right in changing over to mainly RI Beavers now that the waters in the mid 70's. I make a ton of jigs and feel like they sit in the box from...

I use two soft jerks, First choice is the keitech and the second is the SK caffeine shad. I have been doing very well with the double fluke rig this spring with the sk kvd magic color and keitch silver flash and pro blue
