Prevent your jig skirts from flying off by wire tying them. The tried and true classic approach is sure to keep your skirts longer, and slip free. Rubber skirt collars are useful when fishing tournaments and you need a quick change. If you're like most recreational anglers, you leave your baits to bake in the sun. Over time rubber skirt collars break. Save time and money by wire tying your skirts. It's simple... Hope you enjoy the latest skirt I did? Oh, by the way... If you're wanting to learn wire-tying I have a free resource coming out soon, hit me up and get to know me so I can get it to you. Tight lines as always, Parker

I've been doing that for years. They even make colored ones to accent your skirt or just to give more color.

Good info. Drives me crazy that they fall off so quickly and normally when the fish are biting.
