    Anyone here make weedless tube jigheads?

    I'm looking for a weedless tube jig that goes inside the tube, tapered head, high quality light wire hook (ultra point or gamakatsu), 2/0 or 3/0 in 1/8oz weight. Does anyone here make one like this? Similar to the pic below but with a better hook. Thanks.

    This type of weedguard would be ideal.

    Probably a bronze hook.. I forget who it was... I talked to some one here that had the mold made just like this... I hope he reads this... I helped him make some other molds or gave him some tips. I wish I could remember.
