sonofapitch Posted November 10, 2017 Posted November 10, 2017 well guys i have been pouring my own jigs for a good bit now but i was only interested in ball jigs with a screw lock for specks with no weed guard, but as ive completely fell in love with bass fishing, i have thought more and more about making my own bass jigs to sell and kinda create something i can have a part of. i have ordered a few new jig molds, but i had a few questions about the modifying molds, as well as the whole skirt thing in general ills tart with the skirts, is there a general idea with who to go to to buy skirts from? im going to be making saltwater based bass jigs for specks and reds as well, and im gonna need some pretty different colors, and im just kinda shooting around google when looking, maybe you guys can point me to the best source for them so i dont search a hundred sites for something i might not even be happywith. and as for jig modifying, i really like the way the sixth sense heads get through cover with the swimjig, and i was thinking maybe i could modify the poison tale jig mold to sort of come close to the same performance as the design on those, im pretty good with tools and things like that, so is it worth it to modify a jig, or should i just get a custom one or be happy with the do it molds? sorry about the quality of the post, my computer lags all of my text so it makes it hard to actually get a good post done haha. thanks in advance guys edit:if you have somewhere you can point me for good advice other than good youtube videos and things i would love to know, even personal advice and other forums are cool, ive been researching this for a good while now and im always interested in knowing more.

Tons of options and discount pricing on bulk orders. I'm not sure what mods you're looking to do to the mold? Other than a little difference in shape, there's not a big difference between the 6th Sense head and Poison tail that I can see. I modify most of my jig molds to take a wire keeper and have done some bigger modifications to allow for different styles or sizes of hooks. Haven't messed one up yet and I'm not good with tools Quote
