I was looking for Lindy's Quiver Jigs but can't find any where to purchase some. So I'm looking for a mold that has 1/32 and 1/16 oz. taper jigs heads.

Not 100% sure, cannot find a pic of the quiver jig
try
Do-It Chub Jig Mold
or
Do-It Bullet Jig Molds
or
Do-It Teardrop Jig Mold
Do- it tapered tube jig model# tube - TA I think this is what you're looking for.
Just look up do-it molds you should be able to find something close to what you are looking for.
Guys here is a picyure of the jig he's looking for. May need to make larger to see well!

A picture of the head you are seeking would be helpful. Lindy's Lil Joe Quiver jig has been discontinued and there are a lot of images for Quiver Jigs but the packaged Quiver jig images I can find are not scalable and too small to actually see the jig head.
Here's an article from In-Fisherman and if you scroll down you'll see the Lindy Quiver Jig
Balancing Acts for Panfish Jigs - In-Fisherman
The Tube TA mold is close
Tapered Tube Skirt Jig - Sz: 1/32, 1/16 - Hk: 570 or 575 - Collar: None
but the quiver head is more like this one - but they don't have it in 1/32nd or 1/16th
Tapered Tube Skirt Jig - Sz: 1/4 - Hk: 570 or 575 - Collar: None
The chub head doesn't have the flat nose like the quiver
Chub Jig
You'll have to pick the one that looks the best to you
Fixed the link in my above post to show the jig head he's looking for!
I have a Hilts Mold ... TMJ 32-16 ... that makes "speed loader" style jigheads (tapered like a baseball bat) ... uses the 32760 or 575 hook in sizes from #6 to 1/0
I used Eagle Claw 570 hooks in #1 size and they worked fine.
Here's a link that shows the jighead : Request Rejected
As you can see from the website link, the original intention of this jighead was to be used as a "insert" style jighead ... to insert the head of the jig inside a plastic tube body. But, it may be possible to tie with this style of jighead ... :dono ... I just used those jigheads for tubes and tipping the plain heads with a minnow (way back in the distant past).
(& no, the mold is not for sale)
... cp :kewl
Thanks Guys I've checked out Do-It Molds and the closer I can get is the Chub Jig Head as far as weight goes, but is there a way for me to be able to cut off the collar & barb completely.
Lots of guys do just that, cut collar and barb off. I don't know of any way other than just cut it off with like side cutters or something like that. I feel sure someone will come here and let you know if there is another way, maybe even at the pre poor stage? I really donm't pour so don't know all their tricks and such!Quote:

Like BuckeyeKdog said earlier in the thread: Lindy discontinued this jig in 2007 which coincided with the sale of the company to Pradco Outdoor Brands (Bomber, Booyah, Yum, etc).
The only place I've seen the jig for sale in a long long time was at the Fleet Farm in Fond Du Lac, Wisconsin. That was last fall. It's not on FF's website. After this last ice season who knows what they have left if anything?
To my knowledge there isn't a mold that makes that exact shape. You'd need to get a custom mold cut.
Thanks WiCrappie and Skip for your help I'm glad to have you guys looking out for me.
yes, you can cut it off or you can plug off the mold section that forms the collar and barb. For a temporary plug, I use plumbers putty or plaster of paris bot of which are easy to remove so mold is not damaged. JB weld or hi temp putty and be used but are not easily removed.
You can cut them off with a sprew cutter after you mold or like BuckeyeKdog said, you can "plug" the mold so that lead doesn't get to that location. If I was never going to use that mold for anything else and ONLY wanted it for your purpose, I would do a perminant plug (light tack weld). Otherwise, the options Buckeye said works pretty good for temporary uses.
If I was to plug up the that location how would that effect my hook placements, and if I use plumbers putty how long do I for it to dry?
