@@N2TW_customluresthanks for the cool video. Just a question on the wire that you put the blade onto, does it not bend open when you are pulling on a fish?
@@Senkomaniac I have never had a wire bend open on me. Even on full size bladed jigs and catching larger fish they stay closed. I’m sure if you had a heavy rod, heavy line and set the hook like a linebacker then there is a potential but it’s never happened to me lol
@@N2TW_customlures cool thanks man. Appreciate what you do for the bait making community. You have inspired me to make my own lures and turn into a nice side hustle.
As an aside, if you ever want to try a more premium hook for that same application, I've heard that the Gamakatsu B10S fly tying hook can sometimes be substituted for that VMC hook... Food for thought!
Jacob, love it!!! I've been making some similar micro spinnerbaits using the Poison Swingtail mold - love taking a traditional design and using a little ingenuity to downsize it. Well done!
Enjoyed the video! I’ve always wanted to try a small chatterbait for crappie. I’ve had great success using bladed road runner type jigs for crappie and I think a small chatterbait would work as well
Great hook for that bait. Everyone uses round bends. I do not like them on spinnerbaits and swim jigs. I started using the weird bent Trokar's on my spinnerbaits. Landing percentage greatly increased over a round bend gammy.
@@N2TW_customlures I’ve been wanting to downsize since I fish a lot a skinny water. I believe in what you said, sometimes the fish don’t want a monster bait
@@craigvandyke9298 it’s just some 3M double sided tape that I leave the plastic on the top side to keep the hooks from sticking to. I’ll link it below a.co/d/iL0qOEI

I generally pick the weight of the head based on how deep I’m trying to fish. If I am fishing in deeper water or water with stronger current then I’ll pick a heavier head. If I’m fishing shallow or if I just want to keep the bait higher in the water column then I’ll go with a lighter head
@@yasinozkaran4417 in deep water it takes longer for your bait to sink to the desired depth and the bait will tend to rise towards the top more on your retrieve. In current the bait will get pushed around a lot faster with lighter heads and potentially roll over on their side. The heavier weights can help keep the bait upright and not get pushed around as much by the current
@@michaelbarbieri9871 that’s exactly why. I’ve been moved in to the new place for a few weeks now but waiting for the moving company to deliver the rest of my stuff so I can get back to it. I’m hoping to get some videos pushed out soon tho 🤙
I gotta start getting some of these lead molds so I can make my own jigs. I already have the lead pot. Great Video brother!!
It’s super fun to play around with and you can make jigs with the exact hooks and components you want 🤙
Great Idea man Great Video as always! 🍻
Thank you!! Appreciate your continued support
Great video! I like this version, I've been doing it a little different. This is way better.
Glad you found it helpful!! Thanks for watching 🤙
Very nice work as usual! Great video! 👍🏼
@@five.0custombaits thanks Toby!! Hope you have a good weekend buddy 🤙
Looks great. I will definitely have to try this
I’ve caught a ton of fish with them in our little neighborhood pond too!! So much fun to throw
Wow, those are awesome. I'd love to try these on Canadian Smallies at the end of the month.
I’m sure they would do great for some aggressive smallies!!

Hello sir, I am a beginner. Can I ask you a question? Can you tell me how to choose the jighead weight?
