You mean like these that I've re-worked, from this...



to this?



yes!

Just get some skirt material from online:

You can also tie your own jigs then, spinnerbait repairs, buzzbait, etc..

And it's fun...

i use frog hair rubber. just tie a overhand knot in it and get a jig tying needle, threat it through the holes where the legs come out, put the needle around the rubber and pull the knot and one of the legs through the first hole and then hold the knot in the body while you pull the second leg through the last hole. hope this helps.

find/buy a upholstery needle, curved. get a big one, run some strands of skirt material throught the eye half way and fold so the ends are equal., push it in one leg and out the other until the eye comes through. pull the strands off the needle leaving legs on both sides,..easy..
