    Some new swim jigs

    Made a few changes such as a more full skirt. I also added scales to the heads on a couple. They are threadfin shad, baby bass, barfish and bluegill. Love the jigs, they have a 6/0 stout hook and are great for ripping through cover. As always they are wire tired too.

    I still can't take a picture that do my jigs justice. all have a pearlescent sheen and even the skirts have a lot of pearl and glimmer features too.

    Cheaper to keep a kid in tourney fishing than paying attorneys to keep them out of jail !!

    I probably pur 85% of the heads I use but this particular swim jig I do not pour. Actually its almost as cheap to have it poured as it is for me to do it.

    Mark - I have followed your endevour into jig making with interest the last couple of months since I would also like to get into the hobby so thanks for taking the time to photograph and share with us. One small suggestion on the baby bass and red on the head, I think if you moved the red down the head towards the skirt it might tie the jig together with the red strands. Just a thought but they look great already.

    Are you gonna let us in on where you're getting that jig? The only ones I can find only come with a 5/0 hook? Please Tell!

    It is the unpainted Back Stroke swim jig from AMERICA'S LARGEST SELECTION OF LURE BUILDING SUPPLIES! but I guess they might have started using a 5/0 hook as these were bought in bulk last year.
