Jig Man

There may be a snap ring holding it on.

RTV silicone is what I use to cover voids in modified molds.

So is there a pic that I can’t see?

I built one for about $30. I got all my stuff at Walmart and Lowes. I have a tutorial on another site. If you will pm me your phone number I will see if I can text you a link.

I have a Do It for 3/8 oz 90° hook. I’ve used it to 60’ for winter spots on Table Rock. If you can’t find what you are looking for you may be able to use one of them.

I would like to know how you make out. One of the guys who fishes with me won’t wear his in the boat. He says the wind noise is too much for him.

As long as the water isn’t frozen I use plastics and jigs successfully.

I’ve had both at both places for years. I rarely use si but I use di all the time.

Bob at CNC Molds and stuff might make you one. I think he is in AZ. You can google him.

I couldn’t work in an area that clean and organized. I have stuff all over the garage. My main work area is 2 bathroom lavatory cabinets placed back to back and covered with an old grocery store butcher block. There are 12 drawers and 2 other storage areas. I also have a closet, a cabinet, a deak, and wall shelves. All but one corner of the butcher block are piled with stuff. I have been making baits and collecting stuff for a long time and I rarely throw anything away.

I mostly fish from the front so that is where I want my largest screen. I run structure scan both front and back. I use it more in the front than the back.

The 1 wire is a jumper wire which connects those 2 batteries to make 24 volts. Ideally the should be identical and of the same age. With 3 batteries you need 3 chargers. A 3 bank onboard charger would be best instead of 3 stand alone ones. Did you buy from an individual or dealer? Someone should have explained things to you.

Real slow on my ipad.

If they have ethernet ports you should be able link them up that way.

Lead acid batteries need to be charged monthly. Agms can go a lot longer.

We do have a new Lew’s distribution center in a ginormous building just north of Republic in our industrial complex. I talked to a guy at Lew’s Sportsmans Factory Outlet last week. His indication was it would only be distribution and not manufacturing.

Is it a deep cycle or multi purpose battery?

Is this the only ramp on the lake?

Be sure to keep the motor trimmed down so waters can’t get in the hub and freeze.

Motor height is very important. You need to measure your p2p ( prop to pad). If you are more than 4” then try raising the motor. Do that about 1/2” at a time then take it for a run. When I bought my current boat I was told that it would turn 6000 rpms and run 70. It turned 5500 and barely ran 65. The prop to pad was 6 1/2”. I have it at 3 1/2”. Now it turns 6000 and runs 70 with 55 gallons of gas and 2 people. If you guys aren’t very experienced operators, be careful as chine walking may occur and that can get you killed.

I have done from partial to complete recarpet jobs on several of my boats. I just finished doing 7 box lids in my Nitro Z20. Getting the old carpet off is easy. Just put lacquer thinner on the carpet wait a bit then take the carpet off. You will still have glue residue but when you put a fresh layer of glue on it will reactivate what is there. You can’t do this in a place with a flame like a water heater or furnace or you run the risk of dying in an explosion. An alternative to carpet is sea deck.

I don’t even have my first 20 setups. I normally sell off and buy new every few years.

Zman baits even in their original bag will fuse together. They destroy regular pvc boxes.

If you want to fancy them up you could always do the cadman brush tap with powder.

My oven came from a garage sale for $2. It has done thousands of jigs.
