mi_basser Posted July 27, 2009 Posted July 27, 2009 Is there any way to put a weedguard on a jig that does not come with one already on it???? Quote
SPAZ Posted July 27, 2009 Posted July 27, 2009 You probably have to drill a hole and glue the weed guard on the jig. Probably not worth the trouble. Quote
Tim1980 Posted August 3, 2009 Posted August 3, 2009 Try to Texas rig it it will give you a something like weedless. I hook my jigs like that even when they have a weed guard because it looks like a crab being defensive with its pincers up. Quote
mi_basser Posted August 3, 2009 Author Posted August 3, 2009 Very good idea, I never thought of that, I am going out tonight and will try that, Thanks. Quote

You fishin' Estuaries?? I never heard o' freshwater crabs......... There are plenty of freshwater crabs, a simple Google search will make you well informed. Though I'm sure by "crabs" these posts are referring to crayfish, crawfish, or crawdads, depending on your part of the country. Quote

jigsey42 Posted August 4, 2009 Posted August 4, 2009 Try adding a small rubber band to your jigs eyelet and hook the loop to the hooks barb works in a pinch but make sure the bands are real small. so it stays tight.flips off on the bite . Good Luck .. Or buy megastrike evolution jigs and forget all the problem... THEY KILL!!! Quote
boomdigity Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 When fishing a ball head jig I will usually attach a hitchhiker to it so I can tex pose the hook in the soft plastic what ever I am using Quote
