    Default Warranty issues ?


    I ain't even sure if I got one with them jigs
    But one thing for certain they was/is defective
    the intended species loved them ....
    but the dang intended species got bit by them there, unintended species over and over again
    made for a rough go in that sea of waves for sure ....
    lost 2 jigs to them freight trains in them waves ...
    the wind was howling and the water was just a rolling
    and EVERY cast got bit till I was wore plum out ....
    100 or so bream later I went to the truck .....
    not really sad , but still wondering if the warranty might cover some of the issues they caused
    sore arm and elbow and then the time wasted on trying to get your jig back out of multiple mouths and the list goes on ....imagine the ptsd syndrome caused by a monster bass at your feet that comes in like a torpedo and grabs your big ten incher and rips said 10 incher , float and jig right off your rod tip ,,,,,,
    it was a traumatic episode for sure ....
    might even need therapy over it ....
    sure did get me a fair share of spankings with them big sunfish that visit using them lil ducktail jigs
    this is your fault Jungle Jim , just saying ...
    btw bro , them dang jigs are just about the holy grail on bream ....just wow good meds.
    and KABOOM is near
    p.s. the one big bass I did land DID NOT have the hook in him , the bream had its dorsal spine lodged into his inside of his cheek and I eventually got my jig back from inside the bass's gills , ended up cutting the line and pitching them both back ...
    mind you this , that big bass got air 4 or 5 times coming in ....AND did the same thing when I released them , thought they would likely both die , until the last jump and I swear this part is hard to imagine , as it rested a quick second on the surface facing me , I could see the bream was almost gone in it's mouth , just the tip of the tail still showing and off they went ....
    just wow ....and my audience that visit was in the just wow mode as well ....
    thanks again Bro ....good stuff

    Wow and wow! That bass is one big beauty! When they get to jumping that is the heart attack thrill that can’t be beat. I’m really surprised that pan didn’t choke it to death!

    Wow! I’d seek treatment immediately! Sounds like a very bad case of KABOOM!

    And that big ole bass had its gills flared out to , way past maximum every jump trying to dislodge that big gill …. It was past a good show by a country mile for sure

    Another great experience, I’m glad you shared it with us. That’s what keeps us coming back, ya just never know! And the big pickle made it sweeter still. I love big number days when you just hit it right.

    That gill was certainly a mouthful for that bass. Those gills are chunks with a variety of color patterns. Get's the heart rate pumping a bit when bass eat those gills off the rod tip. Amazing when you actually get your hands on one that size. The duck jigs are on fire right now.

    that was spot 3 and we were after sunfish at that location and it was just totally on FIRE !
    it was good day to try a few different spots for sure

    facts bro , the water clarity was pretty good and them big torpedoes were visible , but the waves were rolling and we got our lines broke more than once by them big hammer pickles ...
    the only sad part was losing a couple of them duck tails .....just saying
