I was cleaning up my mess from this weekend and ran across a box full of jig heads I though that needed to be dried out so they wouldn't rust. Is it just me or does everyone have this many in their box????

Plus I had at least 1/2 that many in the tackle box I lost!!!:banghead
Call Chuckie he might have a few
Tim how does the boat look like it did
I would suggest throwing them away and starting all over......if you know what I mean.......
Curtis I think you are rite those have been contaminated in that dirty water plus all of the oil and stuff from the boat. If those are lite wire hooks don't they come with a warranty. Lol
I pour and paint my own, so I have more jigheads laying around than I will use in a lifetime.
I agree with Hooker. Count em up and total the value and toss. The salinity level in Crescent will destroy them anyway most likely. And hopefully your insurance co figures on a cap off restoration to include every nut, bolt, wire and terminal as well as the obvious. I sure hated seeing that boat like it was.
i have seen tackle stores that don't have that many jig heada !!Quote:

At one point I had 6 rods hung with the I-pilot planting her feet and stripping line. Somehow got every one back. After that, I can't say I threw them away, but my other jigs pretty much become obsolete.Quote:

Eileen and I looked for your net yesterday but no such luck. I may call you and order my next order of jig heads instead of Curtis.:Rofl
Tim, if it makes you feel any better I have at least that many. Between LITE WIRES, Taser Jigs and Deasons minnow heads, I almost get a hernia every time I load my bag.
That's about the amount I got in Polk Creek!:banghead:banghead:banghead
You need to start fishing deeper where the big stumps live........tell your son to do the same thing..........Looks to me like you use $.50 worth a year.....the $50.00 worth should last 100 years......your next order will have to be air mailed from above......They will be free......wont need no money......Quote:

Happen to me this past weekend. Finally put all my jig heads in one tackle bag with boxes. I guess I just kept buying jigs when I couldn't figure out where I'd stored them in 10 different places. I must have gathered up 1000 or 2 heads.
When i took the spider rigging stuff out of the boat and put 5 poles in out also came 2(5 gal) buckets of jigs and in went 1 ziplock bag with hooks, sinkers bobbers and line. Boat looks a lot cleaner too. Catch a bunch.--shu
Too many. I got 10 Orange, 10 Char, and 10 Black all in 3/16 oz litewire hooks. This will last all year.
I'd have to say, you come prepared
