steelhead jig mold
« on: 12/07/14 17:43 UTC »
I would love to see a steelhead jig mold (from 1/8 down in multiple weights) which worked with a egg hook!

Have seen where some have taken split shot and clamped them on an egg hook and still powder painted them.  Might be a tough one to come up with due to the size of the hook - might be tough to mod a mold for that one too, with the hook shank so small.

Good idea... I made some modified shakys this way to get a smaller weight paired with a bigger hook.  I bet you could make it work for this as well.
