    I noticed you have some cone heads. Although the fish won’t care, if it bothers you, you can get or make some jig clamps to hold them with the head up so excess runs down the hook shank and not form the cone head. Great start, I think you’re on your way
    Thanks Tradbow thanked you for this post

    The cone heads don’t bother me to much. Actually looks a lot like a minnow head.

    RJR I am so glad to here your keeping busy. Good on you.
    What few cone heads I get I fish myself. If I'm making them for someone I don't send them out. We fish a lot of current up here and cone heads cause the jig to side track some. If I'm in a brush pile it is usually a one way jig anyways, LOL

    Dave I have poured some, usually green, soooooo bad they look like a nose growing from telling lies. Those I just melt back down. It is amazing at the fish I have caught on bad jigs, even some ties that look horrible to me and fish just eat it. LOL We all have those days.

Couple of jigs hanging on a rack I could polish paint anytime without the whole production.
    what he said , nail polish is just easy, cheap and comes in more colors than you can dream of...
