    Default Unweighted big jig heads


    These are made with hot glue. 4/0 hook in a 1/2, 3/8, 1/4 ounce round head. The small on is a size 6, I think, 60 degree jig hook in a 3/16.
    Could even crimp a small split shot on there and then cover it with the hot glue.

    The possibilities.......

    I’ve never seen this done before. Awesome idea but question… do you heat them to powder paint them……

    Thankfully the hot glue comes in so many colors. I'm not sure if paint would even stick to them.

    Looks like an excellent way to add bulk to the head without increasing the weight.

    I'm gonna experiment with pouring a lead head and then trying to put the hot glue over them. The molds make it tough because of the positioning but I can try.
