>1/16th PP jigs

[cadman]

Wow,everything looks fantastic.Especially like the spinnerbait on the bottom left. You are an artist.An ultra minnow in 1/16 or 1/32 would be something.I'd buy one in a heartbeat.

Thanks for the compliment. Unfortunately the smallest size the ultra-minnow comes in is 1/8 oz. The body is about 5/8" long. Actually if you look at it a crappie can easily swallow the whole jig.

Don't forget your roots. I guess you can't powder paint cranks - or can you?, hmmmm???

JJJ
Need to wake up Do-It, I would be all over the 1/32. Been thinking about having Collins molds do one.

CS
Thnx - you'll be seeing these real soon.

No doubt a crappie can eat a 1/8 minnowhead with no problem. I've had a 12 incher swallow a #7 shadrap on me and you couldn't see the bait. Probably be a good river jig.Maybe someone's listening and will come up with a smaller size. Do-it could make a 100 run and sell out just from cc members easily.

Great Work LedHed & Cadman

These Guys have inspired me on this powder painting .. but I have a long ways to go ... You should see some of work LedHed has done that Cadman mentioned ... put it in the sun and it is unreal.

The Pix enclosed is a couple of custom Jigs that are a little like the shad or minnow heads that yall were speaking of ... #1 is a size #6, #2 is a size #8, #3 is a size #4 with a tying stem ( I have one a little larger that is a 1/0)
Do not have the exact weights but #1 & #2 or in the 1/32 & 1/64 range the #4 is a little larger than the 1/32.

Wish the paint jobs were as good as those you have all ready seen.

Are these jigs the style you guys had in mind ??

JSC, nothing wrong with those jigs at all. I look at all the jigs here on this forum, and everyone has certain talents that separates everybody apart. I am very meticulous about my finished jigs and painting, however I cannot tie jigs like you guys do. As funny as that sounds, but I don't have the patience for that. Over the years I have learned to slow down, and take more time, but I too want to get things done quickly. I found out that by rushing things, sometimes it only looks worse. Anyway, in the whole scope of things, the fish really don't care how beautiful the jig is. The pride and craftsmanship comes from the person making the jig. If you ever need any help, you know where to reach me. I'm more than willing to teach anyone how to powder paint. Finally as I always say, it takes a lot of practice.

Hi

Cadman I am a poor tier ... these guys are great ... years ago I tied the Brim Jigs with Squirrel (SP) Tail and sold a pile of them ... got to using Plastic on them and have not gone back to wrapping.

Have a Good One

Ditto - ain't nothing wrong with them jigs - thnx for sharing. I like that style - aren't those jigs from molds you had Paul Ament make? If you ain't tying - show the grandkids how - keep them hooked on fishing.

Hi LedHed ... those jigs were from a custom production mold by P Ament ..

Right now the 2 youngest Grand Kids (9 & 13) have Baseball on their mind except when we get a chance to go fishing ... The older of these 2 has all ready asked about Monday when they will be out of school ... looks like I will have to go out and get in the crowd ... It has been Windy All week .. had everything hitched up to go to day but the wind will blow the hair of of your head. The other 2 are older and they are user not makers (the oldest did "Hang" leader rigs for me till he went off to College) ...

Have A Good Day
