I’m going back to Trout Magnet jigs .
One reason is by going to the 1/64 TM jig and TM body , I gained 10-15’ in casting distance.
The other reason, I expected to to a rise in hookups and in less fish getting off on the way in .
Didn’t happen. I was still getting hits without hookups and had fish just come unhooked .
One of the epoxies I was using , Bondic Pro UV Resin kit worked pretty good . It is thick enough not to be too messy and cured fairly hard .
But I was having beadheads slide on the hook shaft when unhooking a fish .
I ordered some Piccassio UV resin based on reviews and some craft syringes to use it with and was totally disappointed in it . Very runny and stinks . Plus there was a warning on a paper included that said not to get it on your skin and to use in a well ventilated area.
That thirty dollars would have bought almost 200 TM jig heads .
Jus thought I’d add this for those thinking of trying this .
