Can pour them way cheaper than 1.50 each, I'm running gami 5/0 on my jigs probably have less than 75 cents in each one skirt, powdered head, weed guard, etc. The swing heads would be way cheaper to pour since you wouldn't need the extra components to build.

I make all my on jigs, chatter baits, swim bait heads, spinner baits and lunker lure type baits. I do all my on lead bait stuff. I tuned and modified my molds so the weights are not typical but neither are the heads. I do this because I enjoy doing it and I can do colors no one else does. I don't sell them but looking at the prices of them now, maybe I should.

that's my next feat, is to pour my own heads. For a quick fix, it seems the BOSS jigheads are a quick alternative to pricey shelf items. @ $1.50 each, they are still a lot cheaper than where I used to get jigs.

Ronnie pouring and powder is so easy I can do 20-30 heads in about 2 hours if I can decide on a.skirt combo that I like.

I've been making both for a while now. Like post above it's easy to pour and powder coat.
