    Default Looking for info on a crappie jig


    It was called a Sain's Jig. I have been contacted about tying something similar and have been doing some research and it seems to be a Tennessee thing. So I figured I would start at the source...any pics or info would be greatly appreciated...Thanks in advance...

    I haven't seen one of those in a long time. My dad used them. Seems like I remember them being made in the Reelfoot area? Post up some pics of what you make if you don't mind.

I really enjoy bringing back a old timer from the past with a today's twist on it...Like the guy that taught me to tie said, don't ever forget what got you here....and I still the that first jig to this day. And it will still full hour bucket of livewell...
