Thanks Mike.
I slam the snot out of the gills with those 64th's and 80th's.
If I do not bust off I can get a jig to last the whole 5 week season ,plus it's good to go for 4 months of ice fishing.
I know I've caught 2000 fish on a single jig. The paint will be gone ,but the hair stays intact.

You are right about my jigs being a bit pricy.
When you get 1 that lasts as long as they do plus getting a deadly jig....
what would that be worth?
