Hi folks,

Hope everyone is muddling through the winter ok. Haven't been around in
a bit and just popped by to say hi.

Getting my tackle box ready for the spring and I just wanted to ask,

What lures and presentations do you plan to work on this coming season?


I'm currently stocking up on 1/8 and 1/4 oz round ball jigs for home
tied jigs and worm rigs. Thats going to be my lure and the technique is
slow,slow,slow.

Hi Dave,
When I used jigs as a mainstay I tried variations that I made. I used
small blades and soldered the hooks into the concave side and filled
them with solder. I found several sizes and shapes that fluttered
nicely when not moving forward. They also moved through weeds
slightly better than ball jigs. You can add a thin wire loop to
protect the hook point and make them virtually weedless. I found some
store made ones over the years but it was always fun to make my own.

Very small ones work well on panfish and such.

Just an idea.
