    Even if you don't use it to make the heads stand up it is an inexpensive way to hang a LOT of jigs in a small space. It also prevents them from swinging back and forth when they are hot and being taken out of the oven.
    I love taking my kids fishing, now if I could just manage to fish at the same time.

    You can also buy a 5/16 wingnut and set it inside the holder and adjust it to hold 1,2 or as many as needed by tightening the wingnut inside holder. Just another idea to add to your project. Witch is a good one.

    Somebody mentioned it being hard to load. This is true if you don't leave an open area (no washers) to allow you to slide the washers back and forth as you are loading. The end with the wingnut is free to float and when loading I back it way off to allow about 1.5" of no washer area which allows you to move washers around as you are hanging jig heads. With the minnow heads I put 3 washers between heads and can load 45 heads on a 12" all thread. I believe I will have to use 4-5 washers on round heads to keep an air gap.

    Unloading is really fast, once you back off the wing nut bump the jigheads and they almost jump off the rod.
    Thanks Jamesdean thanked you for this post

    myself i take 3 boards. 1 for the base like 2x6, then get 2 2x4s for the uprights on each side. Then take curtain hooks the little ones that is used for the tie backs. And put them up the sides equal on both sides, then tie 30lb test fishing line across then the let the jigs hang upside down. 4 rows im able to dry 100 heads at a time. just my little invention
