CELL PHONE BLING
At Wal Mart I found a small pink package near crafts called Cell Phone Bling which contains a plastic card holding self stick silver backed rounded sequins of sorts, highly...

Yes, a few companies target crappie by making slightly smaller cranks just for that purpose. Either it's to target the crappie or maybe the crappie fisherman. Saw a bunch at Bass Pro the other...

Go to the Dollar Tree dollar store and get a couple bags of gift bag shredding by the Voila company. Be sure to get silver, red and Iridescent. Make a few with silver and add a red stripe on each...

For drifting more slowly, I either drag a 5 gallon bucket or my drift sock depending on the wind. My guide model G3 aluminum 16 footer planes at a third throttle on my 50 Yamaha tiller. It's a wide...

looks to me they have been tied at the waist
, making the shorter front fibers to spread out a bit, then dipped.
There is a Dip It product on the market that should work, normally used to dip tool...

Looks like a great idea for a drying rack. Holds the jig straight out just off the tying table. Another piece of ruler glued under each pin but a little short of the pin ends would hold them just a...

I really like the jigs, but have a question on the browns.....what are the longer, thinner fibers on the back end of the jigs? They seem to make a nice ghost effect to the jig....? Also, just a...

Not only are the jigs terrific, the photogtaphy is professional grade. Really nice job. Am sending a pm as well. Good Fishing, Mac

I make my ties on plastic tubing collars. If the tubing is too loose I lay a foundation wrap of thread then put super glue on the thread, with the glue still wet I spindle on a piece of tubing and...

Good point, Skip

Thanks Stump Hunter. You saved the day....much obliged. macon "Mac"

Allow me to try once again. We are about to slit a drinking straw, but not the entire distance. If the straw piece is 4 inches long, we will stop a quarter inch from the far end......that is to...

jimp......I'm in the Tellico Plains area halfway between TP and Vonore

Most straws I find are translucent but somewhat foggy at best.....Subway straws are OK

1. Cut straw to length a quarter inch linger than jig.

2. Slit straw lengthwise leaving a quarter inch not cut using scissors.

3. Go back to the beginning of slit...

[SIZE=3]When I complete a batch of jigs, I make protective cases out of the fatter drinking straws. I cut a straw about a quarter inch longer than the finished jig. Then you slit the straw...

I heat mine by holding the jig HOOK AT THE BEND, between thumb and finger, then when the alcohol burner did its thing.....heating, then grabbing the eye with my needle nose pliars, covering the eye...

Thank you all for your input. Great Board!!!

I'd appreciate any and all info on making jigs to catch Brown Trout.......thank you and Good Fishing, Mac

Does anyone know how to tie jigs for catching Brown Trout? If so, I'd appreciate learning how to tie. Thanks for any help provided....Mac.

I fished Rice L three years in a row....great for smallmouth and largemouth. Stayed at Godfrey's Cabins and always did well.
You can google Rice Lake Ontario and Godfrey's Cabins.

I've found it good to use a slightly oversized bead thus allowing the prop to get a tad out of orbit from time to time allowing for some extra fish calling vibration to erratically occur. The props I...

Check out the Dollar Tree post.....

I've been thinking back to all I've found over the last few years at the local dollar store that I've used in my quest for lure making materials and other items used for fishing in general. Some are...

For your front and middle hooks, drill a pilot hole in the basswood at an angle slanting back toward the tail end and the eyes crew won't pull out. A thirty degree angle is about right. For a...

I don't do pics. they are near the back near the gift bags.....sometimes they have blue and green, gold, red, clear and silver.

I've tied jigs for a number of years with a large number of various materials. Lately, in the last couple of years, I've been getting some interesting materials at the Dollar Tree dollar store.

I've extensively used a tubing manufactured by the Pepperell Braiding Company of Massachusetts and just wanted to tell y'all how really great it is.
It comes in different colors but the most...
