    Well I learned way early that u don't get into the making to save money. And if you don't substitute it for a life, its not something to make you money for most either. It is something you get into because u love it and stay for the same reason or that it is exciting to make, experiment, and entertaining. I not only love doing all the stuff I do in making lures, jigs, etc., I enjoy giving them to my friends and sharing of ideas with them.

    Default Saving money tyieng jigs.

    Im kinda playing around with the idea of tieing my own jigs for both crappie and bream. Just wanting to hear your side of the story when it comes to saving money. I have done a little math on it and it doesnt seam like you save that much money. It seems to me to be alot like re-loading your own shotgun shells. You do it more for enjoyment. Not to save money. Let me know if you guys are really saving that much money.

    Thanks, Ryan

    Split shot crimped on jig hooks works well. I crimp them on flattening the split shot somewhat then powder painting to fill gaps and seal them shut. Not a problem with them flinging off yet and have made a bundle. If you want a minnowhead shape, use clamshot from Bass Pro Shops. It's an elongated oval shape and when flattened makes a nice shape for minnowhead jigs.
