new zman jig?

Post by DDG »

I know we are in a day and age where everything is almost always replicated, however upon viewing the bassmaster site icast 2017 product i came accross this jig that looks strangely close to a local favorite made by none other than Cooch. So i had to share https://www.bassmaster.com/gear/slidesh ... icast-2017

Painting eyes on jigs has been going better than 30 years now
Football Arkie bullet minnow and Erie head standup it been around since the 70's Even using different colors in the upholstery thread to tie the skirting material using fine rubber added too the throat of the jig collar works in the same way when the jig settle on the bottom the shirt flare the color around the throat collar appears.Now that we powder coat multi color jig heads and combine the thread and the color accents there no end what can be produced. Old school jig building is still around.

FYI

It's not the jig brand. It's the angler behind the jig that catches fish.
-They all work as design.

There are some good brands on the market the better company's are local TNT Ganns Skinny bear there alot of production company's that put jigs out in volume because they like number some company's have gone as far as going into Walmart Bass pro Dicks sporting good so they good with banding there jig skirts that why I prefer building my own and have for years. I've been saying for years now I build jigs to catch fish not fisherman. There always a new color that can be made that will catch I build jigs from 1/64 oz to 3/4 oz and specialize in throwing lite line from 4 to 10 lbs no matter what cover I'm fishing on my spinning and casting rods. 98% of my fishing is done with jigs years around.
It's the only way to fish :D
