    Good Afternoon Eric
    Very good to see you back !
    I understand what you are saying about Simple . Here in
    North Carolina , We had a terrible Hot Summer ! It put a
    Hurt on trying to enjoy fishing
    That is a decent looking jig !
    Besides your heavy work load
    Wearing you out, Take Care and Be Safe!!

    Eric, thank you for helping us who are just beginning to tie.
    One question I have is what sally hensen do you use. There are several different types.

    Eric, if you do just one more wrap with your chenille at the end ( over wrap) you end up with a fuller body and not as much thread showing at the neck…..Nice Rootbeer / white color scheme.

  • @Bigfen73
    @Bigfen73 2 года назад +1

    I’ve been doing like you said, looking all over the place for tying material mostly EBay . Have found stuff at Walmart, but found some chenille at hobby lobby , I think it’s 62 yds between $5 &$6. Also found a 64 yds bundle at Dollar Tree. They are a little thicker than #2 but they work well. Thanks again for your videos.

    Hey Eric, great tie! Just curious, what is your preferred method for fishing jigs like this? Under a slip bobber? Cast and retrieve? Appreciate your insight

    • @ericmasseyjigco

      Under a bobber or vertically jigging under 12’ rod

    Eric....just curious....why did you stop using hard as hull head cement?

    • @ericmasseyjigco
      @ericmasseyjigco  2 года назад

      Sally Hanson is cheaper and works the same try using Uv resin

    • @alexACR3167
      @alexACR3167 2 года назад +1

      I have been using UV gel for a long time now but I was just curious because at one time you said hard as hull cement was better then Sally Hansen's. I use loon water based cement and really like it. I use Sally Hansen's clear to put over my UV. It basically fixes the tackyness of the UV. By the way it looks like you have lost some weight... hope youbare OK. Guntersville crappie are wife open now. Water temos getting down into the mid to low 70's. Waiting on that 52 degree water temp for the bigger fish. Glad you are back....missed watching your videos. Take care and thanks for all of the content.

      Also the hard as hill would get so tacky it was hard to use yea I lost some weight trying to kick diabetes in the ass

    • @alexACR3167
      @alexACR3167 2 года назад

      Ya I am not diabetic but got on a low carb diet and lost a bunch of weight. I found that sugar also effect I flamation and when I cut my sugars out my stenosis in my back improved and my RA improved big time. It's tough eliminating carbs. What was the hardest for me was potatoes, pasta and breads. Took about a month to stop craving those things. I know one thing I have tons of energy now and sleep better.
