    I don't plan to sell my jigs! Just make them for some friends, and myself! Thanks I will stick with a round ball head! What's your favorite sizes for crappies?

    I like the 1/32 to 1/4 oz round head with barb. The barb will hold a plastic grub or I can cut it off for the ones I tie. I hand paint, not dip with vinyl or finger nail polish. They may need a coat of white first or 2 or more coats.

    Best place to buy Do-It molds
    Do-It Horse Head & Pony Head Jig Mold
    Grizzly jig also sells molds
    I agree with Lifebite, if just starting ball heads are the easiest. But once you get bit with the bug watch out. I pour my own pony heads and some days it's easy and some days it will tax all the patience you have but it's fun. Started pouring then painting. Great hobby and very satisfying.

    Oh coming from a fisherman view...how do you set up to fish for crappie? Push, pull,? Deep clear water shallow murkie? Because weights are very important! I just don't want you to spend money right out of the gate for molds to gather dust! My home lake ( ball head jig) 1/16, at .07-1.0 mph. the jigs swim at 9' foot deep, 1/24 about 5' deep 1/32 about 2'-3' deep. All critical when targeting suspended fish over bait. I pull ( long line troll) multiple rods diffrent lengths with about 30 yards of line out. This achieves a school of bait look crappie target. Hope this helps.

    I was taught by a pro. Guide 6lb test hi viz line and ball head jigs! Look up on you tube trolling for crappie and you will learn a lot. The long troll with several rods will load the boat!!

    Make sure that you use the horse head or pony head for your personal use only.
