They should be turning on in Shoal Creek, I have not been in awhile myself, but for the last few years when it starts cooling off they turn on. Thanks, Brad

Looks alot better than my first one, all I can tell you is to keep practiceing and you will get better with everyone you tie. Thanks, Brad

Hers a few hair jigs I tied. Man tying is so addicting.

I have taken the mustad light wire flat eye hooks and bent them to fit the stand up mold, if you bend them to much they will break.

Just call the Fat head shakey worm.

A guy I work with gave me some that was in a bundle about 4in around and 2in long, I will try and find out were he got from tonight at work.

My recovery was 8 weeks or thats when he let me go back to work due to waht I do. They told me I would be off 6-8 weeks. I had a guy I work with who had it done under workmans comp and he was back to work the week after on light duty and he tore his again. I thought I had done that also because I have 2 kids 3yrs old and 9 months old the doc said don't lift anything heavier than a coffee cup for 4 wks and I ask how I was going to that if one of my kids were cryin, one day I pick up the youngest and felt the worst pain in my life, so after that watch what I did.

I also had what they said was tennis elbow until a MRI showed a torn tendon, had surgery on right elbow Dec. 1st and now the left feels just like the right did. Surgery did help the right one so I figure the left will be soon

You can buy crank bait blanks at http://www.jannsnetcraft.com/, Put a screw in eye on the front, take some spinnerbait wire and put it on with a little blade, then put your treable n the back. Sounds simply but coulb work I think.

I use a peice of wire to put in the holes, I bend the end at the bottom so they won't slide off, the wire helps hold them also and you can use it to hang them with to cool. You can use vasoline to put on you wire so it won't stick and cause chips as bad. After I have dipped them and they have cooled down I always loosen them from the wire with a knife before I put them in the oven.

I use a 1oz or 1 1/2oz jig at Guntersville in late July fishing the tthick stuff.

I get mine from a friend who installs walls in exray rooms they use 1/8 in thick to line the walls with. I get what is left over when they cut it off, its the cleanest lead there is.

I reuse some of my hooks that don't pour right on jigs that I use for myself, you can take a razor blade and scratch off the lead, I have used a torch also when the hook gets hot shake it hard and it will come out of the eye and I have also use a rag and wiped it off after iI run it over the torch a few times.

I use deer hair on them, but I am fixing to get some artic fox hair a guy I work with says its alot easier to tie with.

I use rattles at night and in muddy water.

I tie before I put the weedgaurd in. I figured out the whip finisher and now its a breeze.

I fish YUM plastics all the time, I fish both the YUM and Powerbait at night and can not tell a big differancein either one. I always use the YUM garlic spay on my jigs and I have not notice any dyeing problems and I have not had to leak either. BUT thats my opinion and as you can tell I am parcial to YUM.

The whip finisher is a tool that helps tie a seires of knots. Its a pain to figure out.

Here are few of hair jigs I just tied, I am haveing trouble with the whip finisher, any help would be nice.

GMAN, the jigs look great and so do the plastics.

I use a 4/0 regular wire hook in the 1/4oz production mold and put a hook in every other hole works great. I have used the same hook in a 1/8oz and had dremiel it very little.

Thanks, Ronnie I'm glad you liked them. Thanks, Brad

I use the Netbait Paca chunks or YUM chunks.

I use a pair of long needles pliars and a 2in piece of an arrow shaft works great.

YUM dinger any day or night.
