rektt Posted June 21, 2008 Posted June 21, 2008 Hello all, first post here. I'm looking into using jigs, I've never used them before so I figured it was time to start. Can anyone recommend some to me? Or a site to purchase them from? Thanks. Quote

rektt Posted June 22, 2008 Author Posted June 22, 2008 Thanks for the quick reply. What would you recommend for the weight? On 14LB mono line. Quote
bkoguy07 Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 I would go heavier then 14lb, I use 20 lbs braided and thats considered "light". I use any weight jig too. Quote
Super User burleytog Posted June 22, 2008 Super User Posted June 22, 2008 Thanks for the quick reply. What would you recommend for the weight? On 14LB mono line. 1/4 and 3/8 Quote
Super User Munkin Posted June 22, 2008 Super User Posted June 22, 2008 5/16oz Eakins jig or check with some of the board members as they make their own. Allen Quote
skillet Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 I like 1/4 to 5/16 myself, maybe try something a little larger this year. Colors are combinations of black and black or blue, brown and orange or grn. pumkin. Also, WELCOME to the forums!!! As Ever, skillet Quote
rektt Posted June 22, 2008 Author Posted June 22, 2008 Wow, thanks for the replies! so for those of you that don't make your our jigs, where do you buy them from? Tackle-warehouse? Somewhere else? Quote
bigmountaineer Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 Save money and time. Check out this website it's G-Man jigs that are very nice, effective and cheap, and he ships freakishly fast. No worries here. http://www.custombassfishinglures.com/ I would buy Watermelon, Brown Purple. Whatever color else. If you fishing dark water buy black/blue. I love the PB&J and Watermelon. G-Man has always hooked me up with his JIGs. They are quality. $ 2.25 for a wire tied jig that is very nice. I wouldn't even consider others. I heard evolution jigs were nice, but for 10 for two that's a little high for me. Good luck and go heavy braid 20lb plus. Quote
Super User eyedabassman Posted June 22, 2008 Super User Posted June 22, 2008 Try Outkasttackle.com Great jigs and they are lead free! Quote
Super User Jimzee Posted June 22, 2008 Super User Posted June 22, 2008 Some pretty good jig makers on the site here from what I have heard. Quote
senko_77 Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 Another vote for Gman's Jigs. Top notch qaulity and huge fish producers. His jig has been critical for me in tournaments. I wouldn't use any other. Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted June 24, 2008 Super User Posted June 24, 2008 I fish three jigs, all BassResource members and/ or sponsors: Evolution Jig Micro Munch Tackle (earthworm77) GMAN 8-) Quote
