Still have jigs available. Contact me if interested in these or custom orders. Thanks. Tight Lines!

I like 3/4 oz......but I tend to use slightly heavier line then others....1/2oz is good for 10lb or less line weight....for the drop rate I have found......good looking jigs

Bill when are you going to make more of you magical jig's

Haven't for awhile.....but will be, need to make at least 1 gaff for the Bryan Bennett tourney, so might as well do some jigs too.....didn't use many my last trip to Panama city piers.....no fish/bait baito

What is the smallest size hook(corrosion resistant-saltwater) that you can make with a 1oz jig? I'm thinking flounder and possible pompano (tied with short nylon hair)

Chillinfish I will get you a definite answer tomorrow when I can get to my molds in the shop. But off the top of my head I have two options in 1 ounce. I can make a football jig in 1 ounce and get a 1/0 or 2/0 maybe in it. My spearhead jig mold in 1 oz I've tried 1/0 and 2/0 and I thought they were way to short. I didn't like them and melted them back down. I'll look tomorrow and see what I can come up with. I have some 3/0 and 4/0 hooks ordered that will work in that mold great. The football jig will definitely be the smallest profile if that's what your after.

A short shank, narrow gap hook with a heavy head is what I would like for flounder and pompano. 1/0 bass style jig hooks have a wide gap that would be difficult for a pompano or flounder to get in its mouth. I made a few of my "Arky" style jig heads and got bites, but few hookups. I may be asking for a unicorn but I see this style jig/hook combination hanging on wooden displays on the counters at the GS/OB bait shops. I would just like a heavier jig (3/4-1oz) for casting distance and fast sinking.

Chillinfish next time I fire up the lead pot, which should be in the next few days, I will mold up a couple football jigs in 3/4 & 1 oz on a 1/0 & 2/0 saltwater hook. I will post a couple pictures and see what you think. If you don't like it then I'll melt it back down.

Here you go Chillinfish. This is 1oz, 3/4oz, and 1/2oz. Football head molded on a 1/0 eagle claw 635 saltwater hook. It's a pretty small compact bait. Let me know your thoughts. This is the smallest saltwater hook I have.
