Thread: Winter time busy work

These should keep me busy for awhile.

Nice, yea that will keep you busy,

I thought of pouring some myself the other day....just working too much for being semi-retired....but will get on it before my spring trip and a couple gaff's while I am at it.....need to get some special ones made for Tater.

There's a little over 11 pounds there including the can. Figured while the weather's warm around here I better take advantage of it. I was out of heads to tie. Now to powdercoat them.

Hey Jigslinger,

What weight and size hook are you pouring? I was thinking about picking up a mold and some hooks to pour some myself.

I poured 3/4, 5/8, and 1/2 ounce minnow heads, bullet heads, and eggheads on 2/0 hooks. The 1/2 ounce are shorter shank along with the 5/8 ounce eggheads.

Been really busy and lazy....just got 1/2 painted after the altering 1/2 ....now to tie those so if I run out of time I will have enough for the trip.....can always finish the others if time allows.....plus need to work on a couple gaffs

Been tying a lot, but just poured many more today....I thought why not....pouring and painting is the easy part....but might have to leave it at that if this other catches fish??
3/4, 1/2 , 3/8 , & a few 1/4

All this talk about making jigs for spring...means the wife better get busy!

What other colors might be good for the Spanish,pompano or other fish when a jig is used....besides white ,chartreuse,pink .....???.....painting some and have plenty of white done, few chartreuse.

What or whom ever fixed the posting seconds .......thanks

Well all painted out.....a little bit of everything for colors I had this last batch in the toaster oven curing

Looks to be 203 + or -
