Default Re: Help Me Be Lazy (Jig Related)

I've made Jigs before Richie. That chrome plated one I showed you today? I made a dozen of those a couple years ago. And I probably did another dozen in various colors with bucktail hair. I'm no pro by any means, but I think I do "okay" for an amateur. It's funny 2 years ago I went fluke fishing close to a dozen times during the summer. Last year.. 0. This year I'm on my first trip Sunday let's see if I can squeeze a few more in!

I just tied up a bunch of rigs for the bait draggers. I hope they at least TRY jigging, but just in case I had extra leader and hooks so I made some cool double hook fluke Rigs with a lighter leader for a sinker hook on a 3-way swivel so when they inevitably hang up they don't lose the entire rig.

And remember how I told you I had trouble with the dropper loop? Well 6 slip knots and 2 cut fingers later I can safely say I once again am a master of it. Till I forget how again.
