Ahhhh, I forgot about the Redneck fishing lure.

I pour these jigs (ultra jig, same as Spro) and dip them in white paint for a base coat.  I then pass them off to a friend who paints the finish coat and ties the hair.  He keeps what he wants and gives the rest back to me for my use.

Nice set of jigs you got there.  I am waiting for some natural deer tails to arrive.  If they don't get here soon I will have to buy a couple all I have left are yellow.

Very cool thread.

I love learning new things.

This is my go to teaser.

It out produces all others for bass, fluke and weaks.

Nice pattern,  I wonder if the red and black are the keys to the teaser.  Being red looses its color first it will turn a shade of gray just like the backs of many bait fish and the black stripes are at the top of the backs of them as well.

I love analyzing why things work, sorry...

Happy Catching

Not at all.

It's a mix of Hot Orange, Fluor. Yellow with some Black Holographic Flashabou on the back.

It's a Fluke KILLER.

For the 2 and 3 oz we found the 8/0s were really big. espeicially for the 2 oz.. We modified the mold a little so the 2oz now uses a 6/0 and the 3 oz uses a 7/0.. and the Mustad 32786BLN is good hook to use too..

Thanks for the info flukedood.  I haven't made any in the 2 oz because I do most of my fluking in deeper water and need the heavier weight.  How did you modify the mold?  I will have to give it a try as I now have a smaller boat that I can use in the backwaters and will be using the smaller jigs.

to modify t just take a small file and sand down the tit where the hook sits ,it doesnt take much just a little and it will work great,there will be a small amount of lead around the eye of the hook but it pulls right off

Last year we used the 1 1/2 and 2 oz sizes just about everywhere.. 8 lb fireline crystal was the way to go. it has 3 lb Mono diameter and a breaking strenght of over 20 lbs.. Like I said we fished the smaller sizes and held bottom on most days with no problem even in Ambrose and the seagirt reef..

Hey Flukedood, how is that Fireline Crystal?

I've been meaning to try it out.
