BASS JIGS

[JUNGLEJIM1]

I havn't made any for awhile so this morning tied up a dozen,four of each color shown. These weigh 3/16 and were tied on a Mustad 91768 2/0 jig hook.I poured these with my wacky jig mold. Tails are a combination of silicone rubber,krystal flash and two colors of hackle. Body's are crosscut rabbit. There are times when 1/8 is to light and 1/4 to heavy and I'm snagging bottom so I needed this in between size.I wish they made it in a football head. This is a great head for swimming jigs.View attachment 9View attachment 1

Good one ... are you using solid wire for weed guard?

 

[JUNGLEJIM1]

I'm using the wires they sell with the wacky head mold. They are a pretty light wire. I'm going to look into some a little heavier.

Another awesome jig JJ1!!! How do you tie with the wire weedguard? I use a small fiber guard, a 5/64" diameter weedguard that I epoxy in after I'm done tying and the wire weedguards I use are done on silicone jigs that I tie with wire so really isn't a problem. You have got some mad skills JJ1, great job!!

I move the wire weed guard to a staight up and down position,then start tying.It only get's in the way on occasion. Thanks for your comments everyone,it's what keeps me tying and trying to make something better.

Have you tried Coated leader wire?? Stiff but flexible.
