Popeye jigs

Have a friend that wants me to start tying him some...looked up the name and have looked at all the photo's that I think I need....here is my problem, some of these weights..1/80, 1/64 I don't have those molds and the molds I can buy are not cheep.. want to build with a diffrent hook...I've spoild myself where if I have an idea...go pour it and tie...here I got to get my arms around these tiny, tiny heads and hooks...guys are using these on bridge pillings dropping them in 30+ feet with a split shot and killing them!!!simple tie...not so simple for me to do the head...any help would be great! thanks Liftbite I been on this web site just long enough to know, that someone here already has the answer!!LOL PSS have a preacher friend who uses the little popeye jigs as a evanglistic tool and gave me one....my thumb nail is bigger!!! than the jig wow

We make the 1/80th and 1/64 oz head.How many do you need?Just made some with a # 4 gold eagle claw hook for friend have been working here under a float around logs and brush.Don't have pics but will try to make some tonight and try to post maybe a couple days.

all you need is a split shot wieght and whatever hook you want to use i have been making them we call em alabama jigs just put the hook in the split shot close it tight trim it and paint and tie just a neat and simple way to tie really small jigs

"WOW" Good one ya,ll know all the tricks good thread will give it a try.Thats whats good about CDC!!!!!

You can kill em on these little alabama jigs try it don't need a mold just split shot and hook thread and hair and you have got a really deadly jig i only use a 1/8th oz jig but when they quit biting it i will downsize to a alabama jig or popeye jig works great

Attachment 93526 I found the pictures off my phone the one above is my 1/24th the bottom one is the real deal!

"WOW" outstanding!!!!!!

Have been trying to make some jigs with JB-Weld the putty in a stick.Have not got it profected yet have them made but havn,t figured out how to paint them or if need painted.Real easy to work with sets up real hard "no Lead" not sure what they will weigh compared to lead.

Attachment 93557 here is two 1/32 jigs Top Bear and bottom craft hair...a little practic and I'll have it...

Thats how I do it too...my plans are to figure out the 1/64 and 1/80 and pour them..we shall see!
