Here are two I will be pouring this winter. Man my camera sux's, very blury. The small jig is about 2 oz's. It should be great when the peanut bunker are in. I made the mold last year. I copied it from an old jig someone I know had. I added the eyes to the mold. He used it in the canal a lot. You can use a swing hook with bucktail. The front eye is positioned on the top of the jig so it should be great when trolled and dragged thru the sand on wire. It is small so wire will probably be a must. You can use a long tail or a wire then hook with lots of long bucktail to resemble a large sandeel. I am thinking Billingsgate. I have used it in the canal. Have not decided on a color yet. I'll have to experiment that's half the fun. Any opinions welcome. The other jig is self explanatory, 3.5 oz's. P.M.

This is the jig I was talking about in the previous post. P.M.
