JOHN;; I SAW A FEW;; MEPPS JIGS TODAY;; MADE WITH SQUIRREL TAILS; THOUGHT ABOUT PICKING YOU UP A COUPLE OF THEM
HI JW;; IM VERY GLAD TO BE ON YOUR FRIENDS LIST!
I tie them myself ,nothing fancy just attach to a jig hook . I am surprised they are not on the market but I find dead grey squirrels dead in Suburbia here and cut of the tails to utilize .
For some reason I OKed you but can't find you in my friend requests addresses. Maybe it takes awhile to update. If not my email address is jeepgeep@hotmail.com.
Yes I am. For now I have my stuff put up till fall but I do still have a few. What can I do for you PM me I'll get back with you.
Great Catch JW!
Hi JWinpisinger and thank you for your interest. I would think they would be as good as the commercial jigs out there simply because I made them for myself and want them simply to hold up, 95 percent of all my fishing is done with jigs. After they are tied I put at least 6 half hitches in them and coat the thread with head cement or some other finish on the tying thread. I'm always looking for good jig patterns for crappies so maybe down the road you'll see some new and different jigs.
You can get one of these little boats at Academy Sports. They carry the trolling motors and batteries, and everything else you will need to rig the boat out. You will not regret getting one of these little boats, it is so handy to just drop in the back of your pickup.
