Miller, I made a custom jig tying DVD just for a Crappie.com member and have shared it with a few others. PM me your address and I'll mail you one. I'll have about $3-$4 it in, (Blank DVD and mailing costs). If you like it, just send me back my expense. I did it for Mudduaber out of TX, and sent Darryl Morris one when he was interested in getting started. It's very basic, but very clear and concise.
Darryl has become quite accomplished at it, and am sure Duabber has too. Good luck!

get a 10$ AA vise,a few spools of prewaxed mono cord thread at 1.50$each,a bottle of Fleximent glue at $2.50 and a few colors of kiptails at 3$ each.
A good scissors and a box of razor blades which is 5$ in the painting dept. at fleetfarm.
Cabelas makes prepainted heads for about 17$ a hundred.They sell 25 count packs as well for less.
It took me several hundred to make them look like these.
I paint & pour my own heads as I like the process.It's a great hobby & to get fish on them is awesome.
These pics will give you an idea of the size of an 80th oz. the second has a 64 & 100.

Hey, I notice several of you paint your own jigheads...what kind of paint do you use? I just started tying my own this weekend, and the only decent jigheads for sale around here are not painted. Thanks!
