Thread: OK jig tyer's?

Is anyone interested in a bunch of the lightwires in straight ball heads? Had a big order awhile back that couldnt come up with the money. These are painted and ready to go in 8-10 different colors which are all glo except the black, brown and blaze orange. Got 1/16 #4 & 1/8 in #4 and #2. Packed them all and put them on the wall in 10 packs to see if I could sell them but we are just not in a tied jig area. These are all the Eagle Claw 1350 Special Lightwires. Thought I would offer up here to the tyer's before putting in classifieds. Shoot me a PM if interested. Glo Pink, Red, Blue, Green Chartruese, White, Orange and Yellow as well as the 3 non glo listed above. Probably have 2-3K on the shelf in 10 packs. Only drawback to these is that my gal in town who helps me paint, baked them without knocking the eyes out, so you would have to run a hot paper clip through the eye to open them up, or I use a dentist pic that they give me from there trash bin twice a year.

LOL, well I guess not. Also had a kimd of bad experiance with them. I had tied sickle hooks for a guy for a couple years and he had boasted several times that ever since I talked him into using the sickle hooks he had not lost a single fish. Well shorten this down a bit, talked him into taking a few jigs tied using the light wire heads and he came back several weeks later for more jigs, but said he didn't want any more of the light wire hooks because he was lifting a large crappie in the boat and he pulled off bending the hook, LOL! I never ask anyone else to try them.
