small jig like keitech?

Jig it, spin it, buzz it, if it's got a wire or a lead head, it can and will be discussed in here.

almost all jdm jigs have small profile models. i have a bunch of evergreen, imakatsu and deps jigs, but unfortunately they are priced around $5-6.

their are many options for jigs that resemble keitech's especially in the spin guard finesse jigs, you can thin out or shorten the skirt on any jig to give it the same profile as keitech's :idea:

Those look like tungsten heads which would be the reason for the cost. As for the profile you could have some made in that small profile by using frogs hair silicone. Frogs hair is about 1/2 the width of regular silicone (they also make it in living rubber).

Have you tried Tabu Tackle Open water jigs? These things are sweet. Handtied, nice trailor keeper and compact. The head design makes it super versatile. You can do just about anything with it besides flip heavy cover (light wire hook). I like skipping it under over hanging trees. Heres a link http://www.tacklewarehouse.com/Tabu_Tac ... TTOWJ.html.

Tackle warehouse sells BassPatrol footballs.They are not tungsten,and not as tiny as the keitech-but when they go on sale they are like 1.25 a piece.Nice jig,straight shank round bend hook.I would guess the hook is a 2/0 in 1/2oz,and maybe a 3/0 in 3/4 and 1 oz.Nice jigs,hand tied skirts,and small profile.Great when you dont want a huge footbal,with a 6/0 hook.
