Thanks, I'll give them a try. I've heard it's a good idea to warm it in an oven/toaster in case there is any moisture trapped. Do you think this is necessary?

Have to admit, I've never tied a jig. I've poured thousands of jigs and spend a lot of time powder coating and putting eyes and epoxy on them. So far, I haven't had the time but that may be changing.

I've seen a lot of the work done here and hope to one day be able to tie something that will catch em. Tiers seem to think they catch more with tied jigs than with plastics. From the looks of their jigs, I'm betting they're right.
