I think it is an Ament Head, not sure of the model # but they arent exactly a ball head but I have the 1/32, 1/16, 1/8 model and really the jigs. I see the mold ocaasionally on Ebay but never bought a bigger one as I rarely use anything over 1/16th oz. Here is a larger one Ament 284 6 Cavity Jig Mold in Good Shape | eBay

Buckeyedog, do you sell your jigs?

My grandpa is 82 and to this day he calls a hand tied crappie jig a doll fly, even if made of feathers. LOL.

Used a bunch when I was a kid - my Uncle always seemed to come up with a bunch. Pre-CITES polar bear can be found but like Skip said it's expensive and sometimes the hide part is rough but the hair is still good. Like Skip said once you've seen it you'll never mistake anything else for it.

Here's an original one


And a bunch I did with the some of it that I've bought

Thanks for he pics Fatman, really appreciate that! They are much as I thought, but a pic really brings it home and since I have some Polar Bear in Natural i will probably tie my self some Roadrunners with a little.

It's really nice to tie with - any of the heavy underfur I comb out I save and mix up with other materials for dubbing mix's. The real long hairs I separate out and save for longer jigs or flies. I've dyed some of it with kool-aid and RIT liquid dye.

Buckeyedog, do you sell your jigs?

PM me, I don''t really sell but do a bit of trading. Jigs and lures keep me in beer and fishing trips and up to date on all the BS sharing a 12 pack generates.
