What kind of bait keeper do they have and are the skirts hand tied (wire) or rubber band type. Looked on the site real quick but didn't see. Was ordering some from tw but wanted to check first

Rubber band type. Trailer is kind of molded in to it. Not the best in the world by any means, but the quality is good. If you want the best of both worlds check out the Combat Jigs. www.combatlures.com

Man I used to use a hand tied jig and now all I use is Santone and I never have skirts pull down...in fact I lost a jig today that I have had tied on since January at Falcon...too many fish to count caught on it, the orange in the skirt was faded so bad it looked light brown. Skirt has never pulled down. They're great jigs, trailer keeper is great. What I have noticed about the small metal keepers is that it rips a big hole in the bait when you put it on. The lead molded keepers work better in the long run. That is just my observation from using both types a lot.

Santones are the jig I use the most and I have used a lot of different brands over the years.

The lead molded keepers work better in the long run. I think I caught a couple of fish on that jig you lost today at Falcon earlier this year.
