My guy, too funny! “Thing I like bout super glue when it sticks too your fingers gives you something to do when fish ain’t bitin” hahah. Solid advice!🤙🏼
You sir are a legend. Your one of the greats that keep this sport moving forward. You have made it better for all of us . What's amazing is you didnt sell out to do it either. Thanks so much for all you do
GMan for the weed guard, you can use a piece of electrical heat shrink tubing It comes in a bunch of colors if you wanted to match the weed guard. All you need is a pocket touch lighter to shrink it down. You can even double up on it if you wanted to. I use it for my cheater hooks and when I run a blade on the back of my jigs.
Instant sub, as a jig fisherman I don't know why I haven't followed you before...funny and I learned something, my two favorite qualities in a RUclips video.
Enjoyed your video. I will definitely try setting up my jigs as you have demonstrated in this video. I Am brand spanking new to jig fishing. I am basically a finesse fishing when using plastic worms Texas Rig or wacky rig and Ned rig. Those are my confident go2faith. My new friend The Jig is very fastly becoming a new confident rig for me. I appreciate your down-to-earth attitude the end of Comedy you throw in from time to time. Keep them fishing.
Great stuff G.. I like using shrink tube myself. Get the shrink ratio of 2 to 1.. you can get the smaller sizes at your local auto parts and they come in many colors.. have a great season y'all. 🙏🙏🤙
Awesome tip!!… Thank You, Sir… Started fishing Arkie Jigs back in 70’s n forever been told to thin n trim weed guards… But I always figgered it was there to help so leave it there!!… Again, Thank You
I do basically the same thing when I make my jigs. Just with out the tubing. When I’m epoxying in the weed guard I dip it in about 1/2” into the epoxy and get off the excess and glue it in. It does basically the same thing by stiffening up the bottom of the weed guard. But this is a great idea for those “on the water fixes”. You’re the best G-Man! PMA all day!!!!
I’ve been tying mine at the base similar to that to stiffen them a little. Also you can cut a few short and they help to make it stiffer when you tie it
Thanks for the tip! I quit fishing for 20 years and came back to $20 lures. When I quit a titanium spinnerbait cost $7, now it's hard to find a spinnerbait for less! I came home after kayak fishing all day and told my wife, I felt like I was fishing in the right area, but afraid to lose a $20 lure. Any tip that I can use to have more confidence in putting a lure where it needs to be with a little more confidence that I will get it back is really helpful!
G I can't believe I'm saying this. I have used a coffee straw and covered the weed guard to make it stiffer for very heavy cover plus it also put the coffee sent in the water.
Ive wondered if you and welcher ever been around ech other both you guys put out gr8 vids and alwsome vibes. I keeping a rubber band on my arm for a bit no etch and sketch on the boat as i dont have room lol.
Awesome tip Gman! Love the content! Like someone else mentioned, I have used shrink tubing before when fishing offshore brush piles, but I’ll have to try this! Seems like it might last longer if I don’t glue my fingers to it lol
Thanks man your Secret is safe with me only problem is I don’t get on the water enough to hang my jigs LOL But that day is coming working man is got’a work , got’a feed those kiddos. You remind me of a framing fella l used to work for back in high school, straight to the point, fast talk’en southern man and you better be listening because he ain’t gon’a say it twice lol
Hahaha damn GMAN you’re funny as hell and this is an awesome tip. Bet my check companies will come out with “weed guard stiffeners” here pretty soon. You need to latent this ASAP!!!
Man I don't think there's a pro id rather spend a day in the boat with. Even if we weren't catchin em it would be a day to remember...lol. Thanks for the tip GMan
He is THE funniest pro fisherman to ever exist
Lmao. I’ll go with James “Worldwide” Watson.
No doubt.
Maybe...but A-Mart was pretty funny too. And Zona too.
I could listen to Swindle talk all day lol. Dude's hilarious.
I concur
My guy, too funny! “Thing I like bout super glue when it sticks too your fingers gives you something to do when fish ain’t bitin” hahah. Solid advice!🤙🏼

You need to write a book,great simple tip! Thanks the JIG rules!!

Awesome Tip GMan 💥🇺🇸 Thanks buddy 👍
Thanks, Gerald. I may not use it (I'm 71), but a kid I know will.
Boy he meant that "I'm gone be PISST" 🤣 Much love G.
I like this idea better, we always been putting lite fishing line around the top and tying it tight., thanks Gman
Thanks, I'm one of those anglers who hesitates throwing a jig in heavy wood cover. Your tip gives me a new perspective on how to be more successful.
I’ve been tying mine at the base similar to that to stiffen them a little. Also you can cut a few short and they help to make it stiffer when you tie it

Shrink tubing works too. Careful when shrinking obviously. A necessary hack for flipping reeds in FL 👍
