That is a Joe Robinson idea, too as published in his book Piscatorial Absurdities. I've tried it with 24 gauge floral wire and it works. Think someone on here wrote quite lengthy about plastics on jigs and told of this too.

HEY  MUSIC MAN;; DONT KNOW MYSELF IF GUITAR STRINGS WILL WORK;; ONE WAY TO FIND OUT;; GIVE IT A TRY;; LOLOL;;;;;;  THE WIRE I USED HERE; WAS A PAPER CLIP;; ACTUALLY;; THE WIRE WAS TO BIG TO GO THRU  THE JIG EYE; AND LEAVE ENOUGH ROOM TO PASS FISHING LINE THRU THEM.  SOOOO; I OPTED TO WRAP THE WIRE; UNDERNEATH THE JIG EYE.   NEED A REALLY THINNER WIRE TO PASS THRU THE EYE
