    I tie or make jigs for my own use. Here are a few I’ve tied.

    Don't feel too bad about the tying area being a bit full, I will show you mine just to make you feel better, lol!

    This is a little older and more neat than it is right now, lol! Actually my room is much worse and more full of stuff!

    One more thing that I have learned over the years of jig crafting and fishing is pay attention to what works for your waters. Experimenting is a must but I have found things that I thought was awesome and the fish were not as impressed and visa versa. Keep up the good work.

    That is one thing I miss and has a lot to do with why I don’t pour plastics, jigheads and what not anymore. Downed size houses back in 2017 and no longer have 3 car garage. I sure miss having my work area. New house everything has to be portable which I hate and I will not pour/paint in the house. Thinking about buying some land somewhere and building a shop so I can get back into it like I use to.

    Depends, how’s the fishing? It’s horrible around me and have to drive 2 hours to get on them.

    Within about 2 hrs drive you could almost get to all lakes in NC. I live in very center of the state. The pictures I posted with yours last Sunday we’re from lake about 15 minutes from my house if that. I also swung by and got a biscuit so maybe 20 minutes.. lol
