Fished with stump stick yesterday and people were inquiring what jigs we caught them on. Just wanted to show everyone his quality jigs. They caught us two limits yesterday.

xring, when you powder coat the jig heads, you just have to hold them by the eye with a pair of hemostats. No cleaning necessary!

Sorry, just noticed his eyes were full....the word on the jig tying forums is that a hot bodkin works well.

Thanks AgriHawg, thats the BEST tip I have ever got!! I will be trying that next time, I have worn out a icepick and cutting board,,trying to gouge out the hook eyes on jigs...not to mention the holes in my fingers from the ice pick...you'd a thought I was one of them people what like's pain!...lol
You're welcome xring....I picked that tip up on the jig tying forum....I've spent a decent amount of time over there. I paint and tie a few jigs myself.
