I'm unsure of the maker and would like to find out who makes these so I can order...

It probably weighed close to 2 lbs. Also caught bass,small crappie,a redear and a couple gills on boolie jigs.It was still...

    BOOLIE JIG MINK/SF VERSION

    I received a package yesterday that included some mink strips and couldn't wait to try it with the boolie jigs. Really cool fur that really glistens and shines. I'm going to have to get more of the micro mink zonkers, I really think they will be killers. Fur's density is thicker than rabbit...

    Tungsten dumbell jigs

These aren't cheap at a half buck each,they weigh about 1/11 oz. I tied these using a...

    1/24 and 1/16 shad dart/flash ducks

    I've been doing pretty well with the 1/32 and 1/64 shad darts this year tied with duck feathers and thought that a 1/16 would slay them in a few rivers that I fish. My amigo came through for me and loaned me an older Do it shad dart mold that has assorted sizes. I started pouring 1/16 and 1/8...

I guess things I wear and do are rubbing...
