My own version of the poppa chop.

After tying a few jigs for a friend to try last week it put my wheels to turning to try my own version of the poppa chop. They're not everyone's cup of tea but I think they gonna work.... 😊

And as soon as my purple kip tail comes in the mail I'll add the mardi gras jig to the lineup as well.

As a guy who likes Poppa Chop I would have to say they really look good. I like that hook style too.

Hey, 20Watt, those look really nice. You sound like me these days with all of the water and wind, more tying than fishing. LOL.

Really awesome jigs and you already know they work by the catch. Great tying all around.
Never understood the wing but imma try it sooner or later for kicks. That first color combo has been really good to me in a pit flooded by the river recently. Silver body n chrt rabbit tail. Not sure what it'll do in the mud but imma try this weekend.
1/16 or 1/32?
Awesome jigs and always admire your catches.

Thanks Adam, those are all 1/16. I haven't seen any walleye head with aberdeen hooks like your pic before.

Ehhhhh, dunno. I have a lot of molds and just stuff hooks in em that I have on hand and modify as I need. If you pour, I'd be glad to send you the mold and let you have at it. Or if you think of something else you'd like I have I could send it to you also to pour up

Thanks for the offer. I don't pour as of yet, maybe someday......

Very Nice
For me it seems like the "wing" slows the fall rate
So when are you going to start selling them

Thanks, not gonna sell to the masses. Not enough money in it to justify the time it takes. I will however hook a friend up if the ask me to.... 👍

Very, very nice Jimmy. I like looking at those. I have a small collection of jigs that folks on here have sent me that will never go in the water, just because I like looking at them. I guess I ought to make some sort of shadow box to hang on the wall so I can look at them some more.

Saying that, it reminds me as a kid growing up someone gave us a box of pretty colored hard candy in all shapes during the Christmas season. It was put in a bowl for us to look at. Never did eat any.
