Hey guys playing with the idea of getting some 1/32 and 1/16 ball heads plated to tie on.Whick ones do you prefer or think would work best the gold plated or nickel?Just wondering,have to send in at least 5 pounds at a time and thats alot of 1/32.Thanks for any input or ideas.
Nickle...5 pounds how many jigs would that be?
fishing buddy it will be around 2500 1/32 oz size and 1300 1/16ths
Goodness son thats a good bit. But they are going to look killer lets know how they come out. Real courius now.Quote:

Wouldn't it be simpler to go to a place like Cabela's / Bass Pro, etc, and get them there? I seen them in Cabela's at the Owatonna Mn store, would assume others would have them....

what is being plated is it just he hook or the whole jig?
Plated is the whole jig they are commercialy done,I was thinking it would eliminate the paint process and give that little extra flash.
UG I could buy a few at a time but they run anywhere from .27 cents each and up.I can have these done and sell them for around .15 each in the nickel finish.I just dont want to have both finishes at once until I see if they will go or not.Thanks for anymore input you guys can share.
ohh interesting well if you need a ginny pig i am always up for tying some jigs on these new setups.

fishhunter, ai tried some 1/16 crome heads from bass pro and didn't catch anything on them. however I have clear coated plain lead heads and that works real good, in other words the fish like them. they have some flash but a little more subdued.
