My only concern with it is the degree of the hook in relation to the head. On a swim jig do you not want the hook to be more in-line with the eye?

Mark a few years ago, I snapped this pic of a Sunfish. Looks very much like that jig. I replicated it as well but didn't have near the success I thought I would. I modified it over the years and ended up going with a dark blue over that light blue. For whatever reason they hit it more even though it doesn't look like the picture anymore without the light blue. Great looking jig man.

As for the jigs in general if everyone will holdf tight I will have some up for sale in the next couple of months. I have some custom molds being built with some unique head designs. Its become a monster that I need to deal with. I just have too much going on the next 6 weeks to build any. Heck I need some myself...LOL

Great looking jig Mark
If they are for sale I will take a half dozen. Learned the value of the swim jig last year on the Mississippi at LaCrosse Wisconsin from an EverStart Pro. It took me about 15 minutes to get on board.

I will be at Fork in March. Actually will be out there almost full time starting tommorrow as soon as we are in our new place. Jig production will fire off in April. I still have about 100 of the heads shown and will build up a few if anyone needs them. Thanks
