Here is a Do-It head that I make a lot of.
OK....its a little outside of convention, but hey it is a dandy jig. This is the Do-It flathead. This particular group of jigs is 3/4 ouncers. You mau note the treble hook tucked in all that hair. Its attached to a 58 pound test stainless wire that is permanently cast into the head. In trials with the head in a vise, I break the wire before I pull the hook off or pull the wire from the head. These are heavy duty pieces of tackle. The jig hook itself is a 4/0 Matzuo. The treble is a short shank Mustad in size 4. The wire gets a bend put in it after a crimping sleeve is slid on, then the hook gets crimped in place making it fairly rigid.
These, as most of them are, destined for Ohio. Or Indiana. Or Illinois. Many have gone to Ney York and some to Pennsylvania. I get calls for some here too, primarily to be used on the big river in the fall and again in the spring. Personally I do very well with these fishing below the dams until the water temps hit about 40, then plastic takes over. Walleyes are the target species regardless of where they go. Beginning about now I'll see requests for these from Indiana and Ohio from the guys that are getting ready for erie's dynamic walleye fishing in the spring.
This is an old, old head for Do-It and as far as I am concerned one of the best they ever made.
