Dynamax jigs

I was on Conway last year and had my lunch handed to me. I was fishing and started catching a few small crappie, redears and some yellow bass. These guys pulled up about 30 yards from me and caught fish on almost every cast. From then on, I didn't get a bite. They were throwing a slip cork with something small and shiny tied to the line. I couldn't ever get them to tell me what it was, but I can tell you it was working better than I could ever imagine. I finally gave up and left out to return to the ramp. I asked the guys who owned the marina and they pointed out the dynamax jig. I tried it the next day and it had to have been what those guys were throwing. I absolutely wore em' out. Has anyone else had any experiences with those jigs? If so, where can a man find more of them?

I've never heard of these jigs, but I googled them and the only reference to them was on the AGFC fishing report for L. Conway this past week. If you find out where to get these, post a report, thanks.

Jerry, I'll tell you one thing, these jigs are the real deal. I've never seen anything like them. I would cast tube jigs, hair jigs, feather jigs, minnows (both regular and rosies) and wouldn't get a bite. But once I tied one of these dynamax jigs on, I couldn't keep them off the thing.

Jerry, if this is the right place, maybe you can give them a call and find out more about them.

Bate's Bait there in Mayflower has plenty, $1.49 a pop, tiny tinsel tail things in black/silver or brown/gold. They're all I'll use for bream, never caught many crappie on them.

I think you are refering to what I call a tinsel teaser. Bates always keeps them in stock. I showed them to the guy that runs Gold Creek last year. I don't know if he is stocking them yet or not. I like the black and silver or the brown with gold. I also use some of the tiny jigs that Gander Mountain stocks. I did well with one that had purple and silver last year. Sorry, can't remember the name. But, I did so well last year that I couldn't sleep at night wanting to get back out there. When ever I closed my eyes, I could see a vision of that cork stopping or going under.

Got to thinking about the corks you mentioned. These jigs are too light for a slip cork. I use a weighted cork; you will not be fishing any more than 2 feet on the flats. I like a 7 ' rod with 4 lbs green line too.

DRPEPPER, I believe you are right about the cork now that I'm thinking about it. They had it about 18 inches above the jig. And the ones I bought last year were from Gold Creek. Those guys were pretty helpful. I was fishing right out from the ramp at Gold Creek. That little jig was like throwing a t-bone to a junk yard dog who hadn't eaten in a month. They loved it. I had my best luck with a color they called "bumble bee". I also did fairly well on the brown and gold one. By the way, how late do you all plan on staying out this coming Saturday? I might be able to talk my wife into letting me go.

I would say we will pull out somwhere from 10:00 till 12:00 depending on the bite.

Hope you can make it. Valentines is this week so you have a great opportunity to get a kichen pass.

Allow me to introduce Dan...
In the last few years he has made the Gold Creek launch a decent place to launch while fishing the creek. Before that I always froze my hiney motoring from Paradise or Lawrence because it was terrible. He always keeps "what they are biting" in stock. Always has a report; good or bad. Thanks Dan and it is good to see you finaly on the board.

SD, I don't remember ever seeing a link available for 'em. I might be wrong, but I think that they are more of a local thing. I could send you some if you wanted...
