    Talking Help me and mold this?


    Can anyone here mold this jighead? I’m looking for it in 1/24 or 1/16. What I have to do to get it so I can tie is quite pricey….Yes, yes…I know a regular jighead will catch them too and I have plenty of them. The thing is it’s just so cool to look at it and admire it too. I get these heads through a lure manufacturer and I have to tear off the plastic that it comes with to tie. I’ve called them to see if they will sell me the jigheads but problem is it comes with a collar. When I tear the plastic off its got no collar.

    Thanks to anyone who can help. Maybe I’ll just have to keep doing what I’m doing until I get tired of it and change to a new design that keeps me occupied for the time.

    That definitely a cool looking jig head. If you had those on display at a tackle shop they would out sell a round head jig any day of the week.

    Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear to be bright until you hear them speak

    Ditto. Except his looks much better and more natural.

    Here's who makes them. Northland Fishing Tackle: MIMIC MINNOW® JIG
    I'd call and see if they can sell you them without the barb.

    You are correct smooth, that is the manufacture. They do offer a mimic minnow jighead. The thing is if you look closely on their site they only sell it as a barbed/collared jighead. I do not want the lead collar going down the hook shank. I have emailed them asking if they could/would sell me just the jighead without the barb. What I have been doing now is buying the mimic minnow shad and tearing the plastic body off using just the jighead. They cannot sell it without the collar I'm stuck with doing what I'm doing now by taking the plastic shad bodies off. So I’m asking you all for the extra help.

    Here's how it looks like, how I want to order through them.
