What Type wire is that?, I can't Find it nowhere in Florida Where I'm At? The People here at the store are "shakin their head" In Confusion lol Just Like Me?… What Gauge is it?,Whats the "*EXACT* Name brand Etc?, Please Let Me Know.
Gene, I am just learning bass fishing.. My 10 yr old got me back into fishing! I live in north Ar, we fish bull shoals, been a rough summer to learn, but it can only get better! Thanks for all videos I have learned a lot and rematch a lot. But I don't find the colors to tie this jig on that site? I se hot orange, but no banana… Help! We want to catch some fish!!!! Thanks James!
hey Flukemaster I wanted to know what you prefer when you make your own jigs, the regular rubber band or the wire like you use in the video and what wire do you use? a response would be really nice thank you?
What is the advantage of putting that piece of living rubber in with the silicone? Is it needed? I am looking at buying the Skirts Unlimited Jig Skirt Kit on TW, that kit only comes with silicone material. Should i buy some living rubber separate to use with the kit, or will i be fine without? Thanks for you time!
The only reason I don't pour my own weedless jigs is because I can't find a mold that works very well for the hooks that I like and nobody makes a Rocker Head mold. I do pour a lot of my sinkers and all my shakyheads though. I only use Do-it molds. IMO they are the best there is and you can't beat the price.
Not so much anymore. I don't have time to make them to order. I make what I need at the beginning of the season and may go back once more to make something different.
I get my from Cast Industries but you need a Tax ID number to keep from paying to much and you have to order them 100 of one size and color at a time. It's not very cost effective.
hello mulletman. It's been a while. You don't need an expensive vise for tying flys. The one in the video is a Terra Rotary Vise. You can get it from Bass Pro for about 45 bucks. As for supplies. I'm really not sure. I got most of my hair years ago. I bet you can find good deals on fly tying stuff on ebay though.
Hello Gene how are you? Have not talked to you in quite a while….have started building my own jigs with one exception….I like making hair jigs and I need your advice on a couple of issues….best vice to get for a moderate price and with price not an object what is the best rotary vice available that you personally like. Besides that I would like to know your recommendation on where to get my supplies at a reasonable price and keep the quality above average. Thanks
Man, you were just a kid, back then…lol
Are you using fly tying wire or what? And is there a reason you couldn't use normal fly tying thread like some 3/0 kevlar?
Thanks Gene, good information.

Does it cost more to make your own or buy a pre-made jig?
Hey Gene, i had a question- could one tie a all rubber or mostly rubber jig?
What size rubber do you typically use, medium or fine?
Never thought I'd safety wire anything off of a jet. Lol, especially didn't think it'd be while making jigs.
what type and size wire are you using
I think the same.
hey gimme dat jig

And also…do you sell jigs?
I think I've told you this before but you make great videos they're so educational and I can find all the answers I need to be a better bass fisher.
Thank you.
