Global Moderator Mike L Posted December 22, 2015 Global Moderator Posted December 22, 2015 Curious what everyone who uses them like. The G Money brand was recommended but wanted to ask what you guys use. Thanks Mike Quote
Super User gulfcaptain Posted December 23, 2015 Super User Posted December 23, 2015 I've used the Jewel Hole Punch Skirt a little last year. It was okay, I liked the rubber/silicone hub. But most of my punch skirts are attached to the tungsten weight. I use Pepper Punch Skirted Tungsten weights and ordered a bunch of skirted punch weights from Siebert's last summer. I did start to put a small piece of mini airline tubing for fish tanks between the hook and the tungsten weight to protect the knot. Works pretty well. Quote

Thanks Mike Wow I wish I could afford $2.50 skirts. I'm with gulfcaptain and use a weight that has a skirt keeper, and make my own skirts. BOSS Weed Eater Punch Head are affordable lead. Nice price on those Pepper's though Quote

Mike If you order from Siebert, get the skirts wired otherwise the rubber bands want to slip off. Found out the hard way and ended up tying up all mine with braid to keep them in place. Quote
RyneB Posted December 23, 2015 Posted December 23, 2015 I just order plastic hubs and then wire tie a skirt on them. Nice and cheap. Quote

Sometimes I use them on a Fla rig in heavy cover also when the bite is slow and I feel the need to throw a change up, especially in high pressured areas. Mike Quote
Super User Catt Posted December 24, 2015 Super User Posted December 24, 2015 Use a weight with skirt collar in 1/4-1 1/2 oz Quote
