    I'll be receiving a y-guard mold in a few days. Let me take a look at it and see if its something that can be done easily.

    I am sure someone ties them, but not sure who. I don't do weedless so far and have so many heads weights and hooks sizes I just couldn't see having weedless in all of them and then there is the painting and curing trouble. Not to mention tying around a weed guard.

    Sorry,

    First after you find out about the tying them you would need to paint them with vinyl unless you cure long and low temp, but still dipping the heads in powder would not go easy I wouldn't think. I just chose to not get into weedless and still live by the same, don't use them and don't sell them.

    I tried tying one and it went in the trash. I'm not that patient sometimes.

    It's hard enough to me to tie a horsehead with the spinner attached. I get the Roadrunners at Wal Mart sometimes and tie them.

    Scott take the split ring and blade off to tie them. All you need is some split ring pliers. Still even then they are different and I use an extended reach whip finish tool for them.

    Dont use weedless anymore . . . use to take a very small rubber band and go from tie eye back to barb. Would work fairly well. Now have to many jigs, just decorate the trees now and then
