Great looking jigs. All of them should put limits in the boat.

Love those colors,,,I need to restock my powder coating box,,,where did you get the variety of colors Ryan?

[ryanjay11]

I probably couldn't have bought them from more places if I tried!

The powder was bought from TJ's Tackle, Barlows, Crazy Angler and Bass Pro. It seems like every time I go to tie some jigs, I find there is another color I'd like to have.

I currently have 3 empty fluid bed cups, so I'm going to get 3 more colors. I've decided on Clear and Alewive, but not sure on the 3rd.

I am not so sure that you are properly motivated here. LOL


I am testing the waters regarding this matter with a little bit of hesitancy. Not sure if it will be something I will enjoy. I found something cool that might interest you. Amazon sells “Kicko Puffer Balls” and I ordered a six pack in wild colors. These are weird little squishy balls with fingers projecting off of them. I saw an old post on the site where a guy clipped off a finger from the ball and used it as a tail for a jig.

How are you storing your creations ?

[SuperDave336]

I bought two of those balls at Walmart for that very reason. I didn't make but a handful of jigs as the length I felt was to short. Make sure you check them out good before buying to make sure they will work for you. Also they are really squishy and soft, my girls have ripped plenty of them off playing that I have kept for jigs.

I have several of the Gamakatsu boxes that I really like. That link is to the largest one, which is sorta close to a standard 3600 box, shown next to a Bass Mafia 3600 here:




I wish they made them in a 3700 size, but it's hard to complain for $12 shipped.

This is their medium, and the small, that is double sided, so you can store bare jigs, plastics, weights, etc. on the opposite side. I bought all three sizes just to see what I liked.

Realistically, a guy could just run the smallest one and not need to carry anything else, but I have a massive and heavy Cabelas Advanced Anglers bag I always take with me to be prepared for anything.
