    Default Life expectancy ?


    You never know till ya know .....
    seems this here micro jig had one .....
    about 100 fish and then one STUPID BIG BASS came along and shredded it .....
    of course the crappie on that jig at that moment in time got shredded as well AND ....then.....
    the stupid bass fish escaped the photo session , but not the jig ....
    dang it I say , sure was pretty ....
    my condolences to the manufacturer of said purdy thing ....
    Sorry for ruining it JUNGLEJIM ,,,,my bad
    you folks know the number right ?
    1 800 KABOOM ...

    You can always strip what's left off and send it back for a remake...I don't know, just a thought. Jim does make works of art...

    That jig has a good life. Can still be used if needed. Until broke, bent or lost that jig needs more KABOOM.

    I don't think Ive ever had one last for a 100 fish. You should definitely say some kind words and lay it to rest.

    Some jigs make it a good while , not sure why one does and the next doesn’t in some cases , but the big bass did it in this time , the teeth on them really hurt hand tied jigs and plastics as well

    Nothing lasts forever, head and hook still looks good. Maybe get another 100 with a little plastic or nibble. I love the little duck feather jigs. They catch everything.

    I have found I can catch many crappie on a single jig but those white bass are hard on them.
