Takeum jigs hot as the temps

Been having issues for weeks with a short somewhere in my boat causing main fuse to blow in my motor . Finally found it and back fishing . Kept a limit several mornings on the water in last week and released many more . Been boat flipping them with same red rods Huckabee Trident but today I changed gears . Huckabee Slab Swinger and a hand tied jig from Takeum jigs . They bit awful light today but Takeum sure has some sharp hooks . Kept 30 Crappie 11 to 13'' and released about 20 more before it got too hot for this old man .

Thank you again for the great baits . Takeum jig still looks new after 50 Crappie this morning .

Look great just keep up the fine art of jig tying :fish

Nimrod,,,using SolarEz now to coat jigs to prevent from unraveling and from chipping after a few whacks against those docks,,, stuff is awesome,,, just put a coat on and use a UV light to harden,,,, crystal clear and almost soft to a touch to prevent chipping,,, my mentor, my friend Big Ken Jigs teaches his tricks to anyone interested,,,,great guy…

I livescope open water so heads never hit anything but the boat once in awhile . Soft body material comes unwrapped on all handties sooner or later . Wonder if applying epoxy glue to body of jig just before final wrap to securely hold it on for good would work ?

Well,,,not sure but that’s my plan,,,,if I start making every jig indestructible, we’ll never get to try new colors,,,lol

I usually lose my jigs to structure before it ever comes apart or starts looking bad.

We used to fish structure most of the time till livescope . Spend many days sniping the bigger untouched slabs out in the open . Gotten so popular even those are being beat to death on some lakes already .
