I have a friend with a cnc that recently has been asking me about the crappie molds I have made and how they work. He is short on work right now and playing with the idea of making some molds and trying to sell them. kinda wondering if there are certain types of jigs or a lack of molds available that u would like to see to advise him on making
We are always interested in any style of plastic bait he could look on the pages here are on the different styles that we make in get an ideal I will send you a personal p.m..Quote:

Stinger style baits must be why the Popeye Jigs work so well, I mean when we tie a popeye jig the head is the largest part and once that Hackle tail gets wet and you lift it out of the water, it kind of just looks like a stick, lol! However my first try with one of that kind of jig was really something! That experience has taught me some things that relieved my worries about that style being very good!
