    Default Resorecting a RonDon


    This is what a RonDon ultra minnow looks like when it gets tied with grey and black marabou here in Arizona.I did'nt seal the eyes on this particular one and you see what happens when they get broadsided by largemouths,lol.It was still catching fish when I retired it.Time for a "makeover".

    RonDon baits are hard to beat. You've got the proof of that.

    azslabber you mean Rebuild that poor jig:D

    I would say you better tie up more of those if the fish will eat it up like that I would definitely keep that pattern in my boat all the time. I hope that you will post the original so we can see what it looked like before it gets destroyed.

    That jig has never,ever gotten stuck on anything but fishlips.I used black kip for the top black and grey marabou on the bottom of the tail.I have used the same thing,but with marabou for both colors and it has not been anything close to what this one has done.Don't forget the two strands of grey flashabou in between the two colors,perfectly dividing them.Green eyes,if I ever find them,lol.Oh,grey danville thread body.
