You didn't use a split ,ring to attach the hook? Did you put the hook on the eye before you poured the jighead?

Yup, that's how the mold works Gary.

Yeah it have it's own clip so to speak.  I'll take a pic if I get back out there. Tonight.   

You could bend your own if you want. But I don't have a bender big enough to do that size wire.

Who did you get the mold from?  I haven't seen it on any of my normal sources yet.
Oh; nice looking rigs.

Do you have any luck with this ? I fished it some when it first came out. The Biffle bug is what I always called it. Maybe it has it's place but I didn't think it caught any more fish. I thought the idea of the lead being loose from the hook would make it harder for the bass to spit it.

I am so getting one of these!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Tell me something, is the head completely round or is there a flat spot on the bottom? It doesn't make much of a difference as I'm getting this mold, I have used the hard heads and I like it so much I even got a 6'10" H-F Quantum tour Edition Biffle Bug Rod, it makes a difference if you reel it on the bottom like a crankbait.

Thanks --  I was wondering who I could order it from.

Also thanks for the pictures  -  very informative as to bait, the mold layout, and the wire form insert.

You are an OK dude Justin  --  I don't care what Denny says.   :D
