Many people make their own fishing jigs. It's not just about saving money, either. You can get the exact size, style & finish on your hook to be used. Saltwater HOOKS are coated to prevent rust & are usually heavy gauge wire. Matzuo sickle hooks are VERY popular worldwide. No minimum order, worldwide shipping using USPS THANK YOU FOR LOOKING Fishing jigs are a fun way to fish and they catch fish !! All sizes of fish. Fresh water and salt water fish. Tie hair and paint them with your favorite colors. Powder paint, finger nail polish, epoxy coat for extreme durability. Any extra work you do may make the difference between catching a couple fish or catching A LOT!!!! Also, soft plastic lures are added to jigs. The grub, paddle tail, swimbait ... etc. They all work, but some will work better than others & it is different in each area you fish. That is what you need to do, experiment & find what the fish want !! Also, the jig weight and how you rig it can make a HUGE difference. Any comments to this blog, please chime in !!! Maybe you aren't fishing right now but talking and writing about fishing is also a great way to relax !!!!
