Again, great idea! Is that a wire loop on the tails? Does it slip over the collar barb?
yes thats how they work.Quote:

The wire tail loop slips over the barb keeper. The body keeps the loop/tail in place and the tail helps keep the body snug against the jig head
Nice, beats the heck out of the Lindy grubs cost

Where do you get the tubes?
What are the wire loops made of and how are tails tied on?
A big cost advantage to these jigs is the multiplying factor, 10 different color bodies and 10 different color/material tails = 100 jig combinations with a 10 jig material amount. Add just 2 more = 144 combinations and so on.Quote:
