I know Tim's no stranger to the TFF and CAT members that have been around a while but for the newer members and especially the new jig artists asking about supplies, I wanted to make a post and share my experience with TNT Tackle. I reckon I've known Tim going on 4 years and can't say enough positive about him.

All of the heads I use for my customer jigs currently come from Tim. Of the 7,000 heads I've purchased, I've literally only found THREE hooks of lesser quality ... With other vendors I was throwing away up to 10% of the heads I bought! As for the lackluster quality and filing of flaws on heads - that's a thing of the past for me. I'm paying 3� more per head to buy from Tim but do not have to file any of my heads (saving money in the long run). I've had less than a half dozen with spurs or lead leaks from the mold:

I ain't just whistlin' Dixie, here.... these heads are as close to perfect as one can purchase.

If I don't stop getting trashy hackle elsewhere, we'll soon be splitting 100% of the hackle I buy as well, at least until I start buying my own directly from the manufacturer. The saltwater hackle is 10x the quality I've been buying:



Not only has Tim helped me with bulk supplies and quality material, but he walked me through what needed to be done to start acquiring bulk supplies on my own (from the manufacturers he buys from), essentially cutting himself out of the profit. I'm not sure why people don't more openly help others starting out in the jig business, but there's a LOT that needs to be known (637 Federal Excise Tax, for example) and NOBODY talks about this stuff openly?

.... Moving forward, he's schooled me with the business side of things and helped me develop practices for commercial production that are GAME CHANGERS for the way I tie large orders. I cannot say enough positive about this man or thank him properly; he's spent more time on the phone with me trying to teach me and save me money than I would have ever dreamed. Above and beyond, there's no words to describe my appreciation for the time and money he's saved me, not to mention the quality products.

I also know Tim doesn't read these boards often but didn't know any other way to give my support and show appreciation.

Thanks a lot Tim (if you ever read this). I thank God Matthew pointed me your direction years ago.....

God Bless you, sir.... you've sure blessed me and my jig business!

Tim is a great guy as you have found out. He invited me to come go fish with him a few years back. First rubber legged jig I ever used he tied.

Tim is good people for sure....

Good fishin'

+1! I order from Tim fairly often. He carries some items I can't get through my regular supplier. His jig heads are TOP OF THE LINE!

Anyone have his contact info? I need to make an order for jig heads.

He has an Ebay Store.

PM Him here on the forum.

Tim has been good to me as well. He has gone out of his way to help me. I highly recommend his products. And service is second to none.

Thanks for the kind words guys. Im always willing to help when I can well almost always ha ha. I always look at it like this(if us older geezers don't help then the young'uns will let the jig art get lost)Thanks again fellows.

I'm with you Jerry. I met Tim at an outdoor show in Dallas a few years back and he was telling and showing me the ins and outs of tying rubber tail jigs. Just a good guy!

Class act!

Tim, tied me some rubber legged jigs a year or so ago..those rascals catch fish when nothing else will...got to looking the other day and I was down to ONE left...guess it's about time to order some more...

Thanks Jerry for pointing out Tim's patience, and Bobcat for reminding me about the rubber-legged jigs...Oh Yea, and those bluegill jigs he made for me...talk about a story...dangest things I ever fished with...caught few Plus 5 lb bass with them...bream, crappie, shad (Yes, I know..crazy huh?!!)....Tim, I haven't forgot about that invite to Millwood, either...

I was just bragging on him the other day....3 different types of jigs...whacky tail,teaser tail and whats the 3rd one? lol!

I stand corrected,its whacky minnow,teaser tail,and can anyone name the 3rd w/o calling,texting and/or pm'ing Mr.White,lol!

Yup, Tim is one of the good ones, been dealing with him for years.....
