    Default Ball collar

    OK, for those of you that are hard to convince, I did a little demo. 1st pic is a couple of heads that I cast in a mold that was my dads and I no longer own. I believe it was a Palmer brand but I'm not sure. 2nd pic is 2 jigs tied on different heads. The blue one is on a ball collar and the second is a straight collar. You can see the difference. The blue one will be under the razor by the time you read this, just wanted to show y'all the difference. In theory, you could make somewhat of a ball by piling up the thread on the bottom of a straight collar and seal it with sally, let it harden, and tie the hair on after for the flair effect. That's a message from the cheap seats.

    Skeet that flair is what i dont like.....but im having an idea that if you tie in maybe a zonker or some other materials down the shank past the ball and then tie in maybe a zonker collar or tinsel collar it would make a nice full jig.... Jason is going to mail me some hopefully this week and i will see what i can do.....Skeet check out the shank on that salty hook...lot of room for materials.

    I saw that. I didn't know that he was making one to show, I saw the post and started - didn't take but just a few minutes. Just remember that you'll be dealing with strong fish with tough jaws, so don't overfill it and cover the gap for the point, and use lots of sally as you go to keep it all tied together. I used to throw bucktails for blues and their teeth gave those jigs a short life span. They were tied to make money, not to last.

    Good looking jighead Pbug...what sizes can you do? Might have to put in an order.

    Also the flared hair isn't too big of a deal as when the jig's moving it's pulled down flat anyway. Does help sell them though.
