Never done it before but am willing to give it a try. I am a old geezer with bad eyes so don' t laugh. Who knows you might be able to catch a fish with one of my jigs.

I am in. I am assuming panfish means it doesn't have to a crappie jig. I have some perfect sized jigs for gills and other smaller mouthed fish in 1/32

Good response so far guys!

We,ve got six tiers so far. I'd like to see some of you newer tiers jump in.
Ya gotta get your feet wet sometime and this is a great way to do it. You can learn alot from these swaps about materials, colors and shapes other folks are using. Let's hear from some of you gals too. Let's all learn some new tricks and have a fun time doin it!!!:)

Hello Im a Newbie here at Crappie.com. This looks to be a great site with lots of great people and information to. I see the panfish swap and just joined up so was wondering if you had to have been a member for a while and certain number of posts to get in on the fun.

I live in wyoming and love to fish for panfish when ever I can just 2 1/2+ hr drive to the nearest place to fish for crappie, perch, and bluegills. I fish for trout alot as thats what we have around here mostly and a few smallmouth bass. I love to tie jigs when I have time and use lots of small crappie and panfish jigs fishing for large freshwater trout.

If possible i would like to be "I'm In" on this panfish swap if possible. Thanks Perch

Glad to have ya in the swap Perch!! Newbies either to tying or on the forum
are welcome here!! Great way to share info. The "old dogs" can always
learn something from the new guys. Wow, that's a long drive to fish panfish!
Maybe I'm spoiled here in Wisconsin, I live on a 9,000 acre lake and numerous
smaller lakes within 1/2 hour.

That remains to be seen mikeb, shut off for signing up is Oct 15.
Now we've got 10 on board, I would hope for around 25. More than that is
a lot of jigs the same to tie:D
I tied up 20 so far, but we got a few days yet til I know.
10-05-2009, 05:34 PM
Crappiekiller3

Now's the time to sign up before it's too late

Man, this swap is shaping up for some interesting jigs people!!
We've got a SECRET jig coming from Wyoming, some brim jigs being tied,
some of the more experienced tiers always come up with great patterns
and they're coming from all over the U.S.A. I don't see any ladies in yet.
Come on gals, don't let the guys have all the fun.

Just a note for newer tiers:: it's simple, lets say we wind up with 20 tiers,
ya just tie up 19 jigs, be sure to keep one for yourself, put em in a self
addressed container, left it unsealed, then place that in another container
addressed to me. When all are finished, I'll mail you back 19 brand new,
one of a kind, never seen jigs. WOW!

I'll send my address out after the 15th of October and we'll know then how many tiers we wind up with.

Above all, have a blast coming up with new ideas!!!;)

Since you tacked the 1/100th on there I'd like to play.
I have some cool bream jig patterns. :cool:

Welcome aboard

You are in Texascrappiefisherman.
I'm eager to see a 1/100 oz tied jig!
With my paws I should be tying a 12 oz jig!!!!

Redman

CK3: Must be you and me just about cleaned out old Flatfish. I do have a 1/100 mold but I am like you and want to tye in as large as size as I can get away with. Dang old age finally caught up with me. And who was the SLOB that keeps telling us that these are our Golden years.
10-06-2009, 02:49 AM
Jubs

Now that 1/100 oz are allowed I am starting to second guess my first jig idea. Tying the 1/100 are quick, you need less material lol. Now I need to figure out what pattern to go with!
10-06-2009, 06:49 AM

Well now Guys..:)...I would love to join the swap..but I have yet to tie my first jig...I am going to rig up a pair of vise grips and see what I can do with them...

Glad to have you in MaryLou!!

At last we finally have a lady tier in the swap!!!!
I've seen the rods you build MaryLou and if the jigs you tie are anywhere
near that quality we are in for a treat!!
If you will PM me your address I will send you the vise I just replaced with
a new one. It's a cheapie but it will give ya an idea what you want when you buy a new one.:)

I doubt that Redman!!!! He is a great guy to deal with and ties a mean jig,
but this swap is for all of us that missed #11 cause it was over so quick!
I wasn't aware so many used and tied 1/100 oz jigs! I played high school
football (left tackle) and my fingers haven't gotten any smaller, not to mention arthur-itis in my thumbs and fingers! I'm starting to realize that
SLOB telling us about the Golden Years was lieing all the time!!!!
I always say "it's a great day when you're ABOVE GROUND"
