lighter weight eel skin jigs
 

Anyone know where I can get eel skin jigs in the 1 oz - 2 oz range? I have em and can find em in bigger weights, but not the small ones.

they seem to be scarce.

Saltwateredge has 2.5oz Pt Jude eelskin jigs and NJ tackle has a 2.25oz version. Could take a pair of diagonal cutters and cut off a piece. Something stupid that I would do.

Could'nt you ziptie a skin on most any jighead, I don't think the NJ ones have a hole in them. Or drill a hole in a smilin bill

SQUIDDING.
 

How many of you go squid fishing? I enjoy it, I have a gatherers mentality and love to bring food back to the house. I dont keep more than one or 2 bass a yr but I love squid and crabs. Shellfish to me are nasty little buggers but I like digging and making friends happpy. How many of you like to gather and how many of you just surf fish? Now if i could just catch me some jumbo shrimp:deer:

I definitely want the hole. Wonder how drilling a hole would go.

Drilling the hole is OK if you can avoid the hook shank. not easy on a small jig

How light are you looking for??

swing jig
 

i was toying aroud in the basement with a 1 oz swing jig.... cut the buck tail off (or burn it) zip tie the skin onto the jig head (use the thinest tiepossible) pull the hook through the skin this will allowthe entireskin to dance

I have a couple o could spare. They are 1.3oz
