skeeterman24 Posted March 4, 2008 Posted March 4, 2008 I am looking to make weedless Jig preferably with Gamagatsu or Owner hooks. Quote
Siebert Outdoors Posted March 4, 2008 Posted March 4, 2008 check barlows. They have a ton of molds and list a ton of hooks that fit each one. Quote
Super User Jig Man Posted March 4, 2008 Super User Posted March 4, 2008 Go straight to the horse's mouth look up Do It molds. http://www.do-itmolds.com/ Quote
skeeterman24 Posted March 5, 2008 Author Posted March 5, 2008 thanks. What jig heads are the best for skipping? Quote
Super User Munkin Posted March 5, 2008 Super User Posted March 5, 2008 Go straight to the horse's mouth look up Do It molds.http://www.do-itmolds.com/ I think the molds are more expense if you buy direct from Do-It? Try one of the resellers like Barlows, Jannsnetcraft, etc. Allen Quote
Millerman Posted March 6, 2008 Posted March 6, 2008 skipping jigs?....go with something light, like an 1/8 oz or 3/16oz. The other thing that helps is a broad trailer to help it "float" over the water. Pretty much any head type will skip as along as the jig is light enough. You can also mess with your skirt strand count to get more bulk which helps the float effect. I skip often with a St Croix 6'2" Avid MXF, 30 lb filreline and a Team Daiwa -x HSDF using 1/8 oz jigs with pork or craw trailer. My skip is more of roll cast than a straight side arm cast that "fires" the jig in there. Hop this helps. Quote
Millerman Posted March 6, 2008 Posted March 6, 2008 Here is a production jig with Owner hook in a 3/16 with a wire grub keeper. Kind of a knockoff of the bitsy bugs, look under "lethal bug" www.customlures.net Quote
guitarkid Posted March 7, 2008 Posted March 7, 2008 Try the booyah baby boo jig, it is very similar to that. -searoach Quote
Brian_Reeves Posted March 8, 2008 Posted March 8, 2008 I bought the bullet head jig mold from barlows. Sizes 1/4, 3/8, and 1/2. It has a 28 or 30 degree hook in several brands (and hookerz has one too). I have since gotten rid of every jig I own except footballs. This thing rocks in just about every situation Quote
