[QUOTE=chippo;3488857]On hollow tube jigs I herd a neat tip. Put jig head eye in tube feed head inside and poke eye out at end of tube and that keeps it on The jig head barb doesn't keep hollow tubes on long

Look again at the top photo in the post. They are wire lure keepers that keep any soft plastic up no matter the number of fish caught. You can them on jigs yourself using 24g coated craft wire sold in craft stores, wire cutters and pointed nose pliers. Just follow the sequence below:



Start by wrapping the wire around the base of the eye once around; snip one side close and bend it tighter with the pliers.
Cut of the other side leaving enough to form an L that swings into the lure. I discovered this idea over 10 years ago and haven't used jigs with lead barbs since. It never bothers the fish BTW.

I always order jigs from Ebay without the lead barb which always ends up making the plastic weaker. (Ignore it in the photos which are for demonstration only.) Super glue is also a lure killer if you want to use the lure again.
