Make another model with a concave bottom to glide when slowly retrieved or vertically jigged - this would make for an excellent ice jig

I like that. It is very similar to what I predominately make and use when I am chasing Bluegill and Shell Cracker.

Got a pic of the head?

Ultra Minnow sold by Crazy Angler is also a killer in a 1/48 with the recessed eye! I do like the jig in the pic with want sickle but not bronze. I would say more of the 1/64 and 1/80 behind a float is killer

Thanks for the samples Matzilla I got them done with #6 and 4 sickles and can put virtually any hook in them.

I like the look of the Northland banana jig, but doesn't a 90 degree hook jig change the action of it?? The hook in the color pic of it looks like a 28 degree jig hook and the eyelet of the hook is in a different position.

Got another small head that should be great for bluegill 1/48 bullet with #8 sickle and double tapered barb.

We use a 1/64 oz and 1/24 oz jighead # 6 hook With a 0./0 willow blade.cannot keep them on our local tackle shop shelf!!Work good with a crappie tube or baby shad no paint on jighead. and other fish on this set up. can only mold one at a time would be nice to mold more than one.We have caught bream,red ear on these heads

If you ever want to up your production big time we could always make you a spincast mold Jackie.
That is a nice gill I wish we had some like that up here.
