    They look good. Nasty ol day out today. I have made it off the couch a few times but not many. I have bought some of the new glitter paint to try out on a bunch of wide gap hooks I bought last week.

    WOW, those look good Brian. But all day to do nine jigs?
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, rather to skid in sideways, body used up and totally worn out screaming 'WOO~HOO what a ride!'

    Those look great, fine job there. Do you pour your own or paint only? I'm still on the fence with the sickle hooks, they seem to be finer wire and bend out easier. Here's a tip, Monty says painting them cross eyed makes the crappie bite better. He's gonna be mad I gave away one of his secrets.
    may i be half the man my dog thinks I am and a whole lot better than my wife says

    In our government-controlled schools we are taught that Lincoln was our greatest president because his war ended slavery and saved the Union. As usual, the other side of the story – the side that reflects poorly on the government – somehow gets lost. – Richard J. Maybury, The Abe Lincoln Hoax

    Default All I can say is

    I caught fish with them.... couple a biguns too
    Field test here in Marshall with them so far, they scare the little NoJoes off.
    Gonna save the few I have left, too purdy to waste a good jig that weighs more than the fish does.:D
    Also no paint in the eyes, you do a darn fine job Buck.
    Thanks
