BassResource.com Administrator Glenn Posted August 16, 2011 BassResource.com Administrator Posted August 16, 2011 First off, I'm not a jig guy. Never had much luck with them. But this year I decided to try a few, including G-Man's lures, and now I'm a firm believer! By far, this is my most productive jig this year: Tack on that RageTail lobster and you've got a winner! What's yours? Quote
Super User Gatorbassman Posted August 16, 2011 Super User Posted August 16, 2011 The thing I like about his jigs it that if you are looking for something specific and he doesn't have it he will do whatever he can to help you out. His jigs are always top quality. Quote
Super User .ghoti. Posted August 16, 2011 Super User Posted August 16, 2011 At the RoadTrip this year, Mike was kind enough to give me several of his jigs. Two of them have been very productive for me this year. So much so that I haven't really used any other jigs at all so far. The larger of the two gets fished with a Lobster as a trailer and the smaller one gets a Baby Rage Craw. Deadly combos. When the fishing season is over I will be sending those both back to him so he came match 'em. I'll be stocking up on those, you can bet your hind-end. He makes a danged good jig, and is a heck of a nice guy to boot. Quote
Super User grimlin Posted August 17, 2011 Super User Posted August 17, 2011 Wide gap and finesse jig are my favorites. Wide gaps get either chunks or paca craws as trailers and the finesse jigs get the smallest craws I can find.FLW made some great mini craws that are now gone. I'm gonna bet a good 80-90% of my jigs in my boxes come from him. Quote
Super User webertime Posted August 17, 2011 Super User Posted August 17, 2011 I have a 1/2oz Football with black and a touch of pink and white in the skirt. I call it 16 and Pregnant. Smallies crush this thing. I've been using his Grass Jigs as Swim Jigs, Blue head with green and blue skirt. Quote
Big-O Posted August 17, 2011 Posted August 17, 2011 All of G Mans jigs are GREAT with my favorites being the ones I'm getting in the next couple of days He's making some SUPER JIGS for me and Paul... We might call'em BOP jigs... For Big O and Paul When we get'em and G Man says it's OK, we might even show'em to ya The BIG MEAN Tanks that some of us ARE FORCED to do battle with, require a BIG MEAN set up and G Man knows how to make that happen! Are there better custom jigs out there... NOPE, G Man's Got'em by the NADS Big O www.ragetail.com Quote
tyrius. Posted August 17, 2011 Posted August 17, 2011 I don't have a favorite. I have boxes stuffed with many different kinds. G-Man's jigs are the only ones that I buy. Quote

Siebert Outdoors Posted August 17, 2011 Posted August 17, 2011 Thanks guys!!!!!!!!! I truly appreciate the support and business. I have a new jig posted up on my site (Elite bullet)and will post up some better pics here real soon. I'll also offer it without the eyes. I'm going to offer a special on some shaky heads I have for a good deal coming up also. I have added a few more colors to my site. Big O's is one of them and also 24/7 which is a dynamite color with black, metalic blue, purple. Big O, I like the name BOP. I think you and Paul will like this jig. Its stout and its built for heavy duty use! Quote
Brad70 Posted August 18, 2011 Posted August 18, 2011 G-man's finesse and Elite G swim jigs have been outstanding for me. I fish Ozark Rivers primarily and the Missouri Craw color has been money. In fact, fun little story. Passed another little jon boat on the water yesterday as they were taking out/I was putting in the river. I asked how they did and were very rude and told me don't waste your time you wont catch anything fishing behind us. Well after they were passed by me I made my first cast with a G-man jig and boated a very nice smallie that they witnessed. I guess a previously caught fish will come back and hit a G-man Jig Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted August 18, 2011 Super User Posted August 18, 2011 My favorite is his custom 3/4oz Mop Jig, Jumbo Football Head, wire tied. Free shipping for orders of $30 or more. Quote
tyrius. Posted August 18, 2011 Posted August 18, 2011 Just got my last shipment of crack (jigs) last night. The silver/black head, oil skirt swim jig is pretty awesome looking. Quote
Super User senile1 Posted August 19, 2011 Super User Posted August 19, 2011 I have a few favorites from G-Man. I regularly use the Grass jigs, Elite Wide-Gaps, the Finesse jigs, and the MATA wide gap (MOP). My favorite regular colors are the Missouri Craw, Grasshopper, PB&J, and Black/Blue and most of the time I use a Rage Tail Craw, Rage Tail Baby Craw, Rage Tail Lobster, or Chompers skirted twin-tail grub as a trailer. I always have a G-Man jig of one kind or another tied on one of my rods every time I go out. Three years ago or thereabouts I decided to give Mike's jigs a try because his prices were good, he was local to my state, and his posts seemed to indicate he was a good guy. Except for some Shaky-head jigs, his jigs are the only ones I buy now. Thanks, Mike, for an outstanding product, great service, and for being an all-around good guy. (I forgot to mention the standard green pumpkin color. A green pumpkin jig and a Rage Craw in Summer Craw color kills when I fish lakes with 2 feet of visibility or more.) Quote
