The things a guy will do to impress a spotted bay bass....

I see a long day of epoxy powder paint in my future.

Not today, though.

That one got nail polish to see what they're gonna look like.

Also made some EWG ned rigs, an underspin version of the big eye jig, and some swingtail jigs.

I have mostly used clear Sally as lacquer when repairing guides on my rods. She hasn't done me wrong yet for that.

A dab of black Sally on a non black jig head looks like a fish eye too. On a black jig head, I use white Sally for the eye. I have tried Sally to repair soft plastics, she just doesn't cut it for that. White, black or clear Sally; I like them all.

I used Sally Hansen "Hard as Nails" with glitter to spice up these white jigs. Goes on easy and dries fast.

Thanks for your post, I was curious how you got those red hooks on a split ring as I’ve tried but I’ve found I can only tie them direct, what size splits are you using?

The hooks are attached with brazed stainless steel rings.
