    Default Roadrunner specs?


    I'm gonna start pouring my road runners and need to know the size of the swivel and split ring that is on the 1/8 roadrunner jig. Also what is that hook size? I put a do-it mold, hooks and chartreuse powder paint on my Christmas list!:D

    I use a size 4 or 1 and even 1/0, you might have to squeze a bit tight on your mold if you use the sickles and sometimes the eyelet to the bend can be a little long. the crane swivel I use a size 12s with a size 0 split ring. You don't need the heavy duty split rings the lighter wire ones work just fine or as some of the guys are doing is using a jump ring instead of a swivel.

    I don't know how many you're going to pour but I buy mine by the 1000's. I got mine from Hagens but Flatfish at Crazy Angler has good prices on them also.

    If you run into any problems let us know and we'll help you out

    you can pour them for your own use. But you can not pour to sell...

    As Bug said you can pour them for your own use. You can also trade them with folks who make other jigs that you might not have.

    I think you can sale them if you don't call them Roadrunners. I think you have to call them pony heads.

    As Bug stated TJ from TII is on not only this site but many others, and they will go after anyone they catch selling them. I don't care how much anyone says they've checked out the legality of selling them but they are wrong!!!! As many can tell you the only person on this site who can legally sell them is Skip, as he has licensing from TII to do so.

    Just isn't worth getting busted to sell some jigs.
