Read a article in the sportmsman on these....anyone ever used them and who sells them? I used alot of the stumpy bayou jigs but can't find them anymore.
Read the article over again and it mentioned they sell them at a gas station in maurice. Gunna check tomorrow. Here is a pic of the jigs,looks alot like the old stumpy bayou jigs. I would tear up the sacalait and bream on these jigs before I ran out.
Would that be Dale's going South outside of Maurice. I don't think he is open on Sunday. Might be wrong as I often am.Quote:

Almost 400 views but nobody knows anything? Either they aren't well known or everyone trying to keep it quiet. Knowing sacalait fishermen I would bet on the latter.
Hey RM,
I've got a box full of hair jigs. Don't use em much. Tubes is what I like. I'm sure they catch fish but with only two retail outlets I doubt many folks fish em. JMO
Did you check that nice bait shop in Broussard. I know they sell some hard to find hair jigs, but it's been a few months since I've been over there. They might order some if you put a bug in their ear.Quote:

Skip, that article in the La. Sportsman says they're tied with calf hair. Not sure if they mean kip tails or something else.

These days I don't matter much what animal the hair or feathers came from. IMO
JR, I'm more of a plastic man myself although I do tie and use some Marabou jigs with great success. On my last trip out that I posted pictures of, all mine were caught on a orange head, black chennel body, blue marabou tail. Marabou really has some great action even at rest which is great when they want a slow presentation.

That would be kip tail, but that pic looks like it's too long for Kip tail except for the end of each tail. I do tie a lot of Kip Tail Jigs for guys in South Louisiana and they do catch crappie!
I have a lot of Fox tails and that should work too, plus it would have more action than Kip.
Old thread but today a friend sent me a fresh article in Tech Life on the couple that make the Popp Chop. It's the June 2, 2013 edition. This friend is really good as he sent me 10 of the jigs to try.
I wonder if the guy that makes them is on CDC.
got a link to the article?:donoQuote:

This is an old thread. Just trying to help out.
This might be an old thread but I keep wondering what KIP is suppose to be --- at the Tackle shop those Bleached, Dyed Squirrel tails don't say Dead Gray Squirrel or Prairie Dog.
Kip is a calf tailQuote:
