couple 1/8's

I tied up a couple 1/8 th's . My buddy SacLaitPat gave me the jigheads on the right for timber fishing. The jigheads on the left a customized by me..

Good ties again Heath. You did a good job on the combos. Just looking and comparing the two the one on the left would seem bigger than the one on the left, actually they are close to the same weight. Heath on those jigheads I delibreately changed the hook position to fish timber, this jig will have a little more vertical than horizonital also I used a chartruse Eagle claw Light wire hook although it is a size smaller it has a bigger bite at the barb for taking fish out of the thick stuff.

Thanks Pat, your jig head should do very well for me in the timber! Thanks again!

Awesome combo...Those would do well out here !

Thanks Roger!

Awesome looking jigs!!

One on the left bigger than the one on the left? Did you mean than the one on the right?

The hooks are different styles, one is a "J" style and the other is a "Sickle" style. I prefer "Sickle" style, which for me I believe acts similar to a circle hook and gets a better hookset. And I believe they come out of brush and around timber much better. The lighter wire also I think provides a sharper hook that stays sharp longer.

Nice jigs.

That color works well over here on sand bass Heath.

Thanks Frank!

Thanks Gloria



Thanks Jackson!

Heath, that color pattern with some variation has caught several limits of crappie over here for me. The cockroach still slays them..............

Looking good buddy...you and Pat both.

Thanks Jackson, I have a variation of the roach, not as good as yours but seems to do decent...

Thanks Rowdy...

Heath those are awesome. I like them alot.

Good observation on the grammar Gloria. Sickle seem to be the preferred hook these days in reality a sickle or j style you are still dealing with a radius of 180 so I was just talking about the bite of the hook after the hookset in holding fish that shake like heall trying to get loose, no big deal. Hey RTL have you been to NM lately?

Thanks Bobby!
