Those look awesome but I think the hook is about 1/2" too long for what I'm looking for. Any idea if the football head will sit on the bottom with the hook up at 45 degrees from the bottom like a standup jig? Get me a $ on about 3 dozen of the 1oz in white and a dozen in orange.

Chillinfish it is my belief that the football jig is supposed to stand-up like your saying. I just got the mold and have not had the opportunity to fish anything I had made. I will PM you with my cell number. We can get together on an order.

The ones on the bottom row with nylon

Common name for hair jigs with long feather tails is "Preacher Jigs". My wife makes them for us and friends. They look phenonomal in the water, and have proven effective. Have to use heavy heads to get the same action and sink rate that the spaniards love.

Chillinfish your's will be nylon as requested. Here is some I tied for Fordguy in bucktail for stripers.327.jpg
