Brim busters

[Takeum]

Had some banana jigs hanging around and decided to try something to use on brim,,,,i powder coated the bodies a candy red and used some black foxtail over on top,,,,whatchA think,,,will they attract brim maybe? Almost look like a lighting bug….not sure if that’s a good or bad thing with brim….

Here’s one I did alittle different to make it look cleaner…

Man I have some of those jig heads laying around in my box. I may do the same thing you just done. I find bluegill like anything that look like a bug and those are killer.

Should be a killer!

Don’t even have to tie,,,just glue on top lightly. Put shrink tube around it and heat very lightly around jig so you won’t burn the hair,,,it takes practice, but I promise it can be done,,,,I even powder coated the banana jig first to give it color,,,silver one is disco silver body and black was done in a candy red….shrink tube I used was 1/8”. Buy it on eBay by the roll,,,like $13.00 for 100 ft…

Sweet!

Trick is not to burn the hair,,,I bet boiling water might shrink it better without burning the hair,,, my finger took a lot of those first tries,, But one I did it to ensure hair not to pull out ,I glued around the e dis of the shrink tubing and lightly on the hair to keep things together nicely,,,I had overhand of shrink tubing as well around eyelet, but a very sharp knife went around the tubing easily and it pulled off clean

Tip it with waxworm, maggot, crappie nibble, or scent stick by Slabanator and you better use a counter so you don't go over your limit!
