Garymcd jigs are awesome! I bought several and they look even better in person and in the water. Very fast shipping, great price and made me the exact colors I requested.

Thanks,
Eric

NuTech Lures NuJigs are great swim jigs. because of the design of the NuJig, no matter how fast it is pulled through the water, it will never roll over. it stays straight up all the time. it also hooks more accurately because of the design. check them out at nutechlures.com

Bo said it and I have experienced it first hand and its called the roll factor.

You want a jig that does not roll over during the retrieve at whatever speed you desire. This is due to how the head is designed, thus keeping the hook straight up and then hooking the fish in the roof of the mouth.

go ahead and take several swim jigs and compare them in a pool or clear lake and see for yourself.

NuTech Lures has a lure called the WhizJig that has a blade attached to the hook that is great as a swimJig of replacement in many circumstances for a spinner bait.

im very impressed with the owner of santone jigs, we spoke on the phone and are going to do a little detective work and see why the hooks on the 2 jigs had bent, he was very interested in getting the problem resolved. we are leaning toward a bad hook, i have a dozen or so left im going to try them and let him know if it was an isolated case or what if it happens to the other ones he wants them back to look at them, i will report back with findings......

The fine folks at Santone will indeed take care of you! I can't imagine the hooks on those swim jigs failing. Something is definitely fishy there.

I'd like to see a picture of that combo! Sounds intriguing!
