    Wink Not the "Watsit" but some "Buggies"


    I was trying to do something similar to the "Watsit" jig made famous by Lindy Jig Company. I came up with just "The Buggies" made by Shipahoy41. My mold is from Jacobs Baits. Well folks, I was playing around in the shop this morning. I got the idea of combining my soft plastic skills with some of my jig tying skills and came up with "The Buggies." I believe the Crappie, Bluegill and White Bass will eat them up rather quickly. These are 1.25 inches long. What do you think?

    I love how these little rubber legs move in the water.

    You need a tuna in that tank Ship. lol

    Using the rubber for the legs is using your head. Nice job. At an inch and a quarter those should be absolute torment for sunfish.

    Those will do fine Ship. I'm looking forward to some warmer weather and the fly rod. I got a taste for some gill filets.
