Yeah, you got me thinking WEEDLESS.

The old style y guards are being carried now by Lurecraft.com about 40 a thousand, fibers are about 43 a thousand

[Nightprowler]

How can I get a y-guard to fit into a mold made for fibers? I noticed the y-guard has a small circular indent in the base. What is it's purpose? And is there a mold made for both the y-guard and and fiber guard? Thanks for the help.

[Fatman]

What the little circle indent is for is where in goes in the jig head, and the outside edge sits on the edge of the jig above it. I don't know of any molds that will take both kinds unless you have a custom made or know how to customize the mold yourself.

Do It used to carry the mold for Y guards but not anymore. I believe they still carry the fiberguard molds. I still use jigs with the Y guards and absolutely love them. You can hunt brush with them instead of trying to avoid it.

Knowing how to set up a jig with a Y guard and fish it can make a big difference as well. You'll still lose some jigs but not nearly as much as you would if you didn't use a weedless jig.

Does anybody know if any company is making the molds for crappie jig with y-guards? Or does anybody have one they would like to sell?
