I've found the owner Shakey heads to pretty good. Only problem was they aren't painted so I fixed that. Easy and fast. When you find a bait you like you stick with it.

A little heat.

A little dip.

Some cure time with heat.

Then pick your favorite bait and tie it on.


Spike It Jig n coat is the powder and it's a clean process.

they make painted ones

Oops. They look good though.

I might have to try this. They look good!

I've never found the Owners painted? Where can I find them painted cause I've looked high and low. Lots of Shakey heads with Owner hooks I know. This is all Owner at least packaged by them.

I get the painted ones from Tacklewarehouse.

You're not curing them in your kitchen oven I hope!

bought some green pumpkin owner heads at academy and they quit carrying them

They only make 3 colors

No way... out in the garage I have natural gas heater. It's great for this.

Thank you. I did some black and brown this time. Next time I'm gonna put some fleck on them. Appreciate the info.

Hard to beat the owner for smaller shakey heads

Andi and Ivan at Talon make a good shakey head. Check out the Lipstickers. Nearly indestructable coating.

Toad,

Whats your secret for keeping the powercoat out of the line tie?

Theres a couple things you can do to keep the eye from coating. First don't over heat your jig, you just want the paint to cover the jig, you don't want it to flash before you cure in the oven, this gives it a lighter coat of paint which also makes it more chip resistant, and second if you do get paint in the eye after you heat take a spinnerbait or buzz bait wire depending on how big the eye s, heat it up, and push it through the eye, this takes care of the paint covering the eye
