Spent two hours trimming them up but they are all ready. Then I found 6 bags of jigs that I had in my painting crate that weren't sorted out and had to do those, best find was I found a bag of 57 horseheads with the tin foil wrapped on them already, and two weeks ago I cast a bunch cause I thought I was out!!!!DUH!!! So tonight I'm going to straighten things up to see if I have any more hiding and then see exactly what I have, and what needs to be filled up!!

You had a session for sure!! I really want to get a minnow head mold, I've seen some bucktails done on them and they look real good, the ones with the eye sockets is what I'm after. That custom jig, I know you said it is a size 4 hook but what is the weight, that looks like it would work well for bottom hopping!
