Been a while since I posted. Thought I would post up a recent jig success. I decided to tie up some flarehawks and then some standard jigs for snapper. Material is sea witch hair and its a do it ultra jig mold. I also found a reference on the internet to a guy using a clear coat auto paint and just dipping his jigs in it for durability. WOW what a difference.
It was a long trip out for our short red snapper season here in Fl. I had my rod rigged and ready with the 4oz jig. Never used a jig like this in 160+ foot of water before. i kid you not. We stopped the boa. I dropped the jig in the water and counted to about 60... BAM first legal snapper of the day on a jig I tied the night before! It was a pretty cool feeling.

That is a long drop down to the bottom. Great to see the variety and think think this goes along with another current thread talking about the effectiveness of red/white jigs.
