More Herrings

[QPassage]

I didn't want to hijack Junglejim's post so I started another. By the JJ those are some premier jigs you have there.
Mine are a little different in size and materials used I suspect the fish that are being targeted. My buddies love this jig and since it can be poured with or without the wire this will be a very universal jig for ny sales.
Here are a few things I've done thus far.

















This will be the new swim bait jig for most in the near future. I'd like to find this in a 1/16 and a 1/32 oz that would be the go to crappie bait I believe.

The one's with the swim jig style plastics would work on my waters.

Nice job.

Nice ties buddy!!

Great lookin tyes! Think the mold would work great with a wire keeper for plastics too.

Nice work indeed! That herring jig got me thinking. I just ordered a mold, once I figured out the dynamics involved I guess I can use that wire idea on any given mold with minor modifications. I have frequent requests for bigger sea horses for instance.

They have a listing but not available yet, for the Herring in smaller sizes. I'll be glad when it is out. After reading on the web how Blakemore has been over the years with people buying the pony mold then not being able to sell this will be a competitors advantage I believe. Karma sometimes makes it's loop and knocks ya on your butt. Though I don't believe the coyote ever caught the roadrunner he did at times give him a run for the money. Competition in this country is the greatest thing going, it keeps the rest of us honest!

Nice one's. Also been cutting off the collar and tying in the swivel at the head. Also ordered some size 10 chenilles to twist together on the 1/4 and 3/8 sizes.
