Handmade Slow Pitch Fishing Jigs, Lures, & Accessories

Unique Individually HanDCrafted in the USA Vertical Jigs and ACCESSORIES

I offer various jig styles and weights from 1 oz to 16 oz, from surf fishing to Slow Pitch to deep drop. These jigs have been extremely productive for most saltwater species including amberjack, bonito, cobia, grouper, snapper, mackerel, mahi, trigger, and tuna.
Quality VMC hooks and split rings (or otherwise defined). Assist cord is 300# Kevlar, 350# Kevlar, or 100# Paracord as depicted. The 3 oz continues to be my favorite, casts like a bullet, and has a nice flutter on the fall. You may also move the hook to the eye end to mimic a squid. I have tried to designate the fall characteristics in product information for each of the jigs.

The FLASH SERIES offers brilliant light reflection and durable 2-3 coat epoxy finish. Most items have a realistic scale pattern. Others use color shifting/holographic tape, or combinations of both. This is a very tedious and time-consuming process by hand, but the results are beautiful. The bright pink, green, chartreuse and other colors are fluorescent where designated. Click the SHOP tab>Flash Series

The GLOW SERIES uses glow in the dark JigSkinz cover sleeve over the reflective tape, glow in the dark paint, or long lasting SuperGlow tape where designated. I also use various fluorscent tapes and paints in this series. The glow cover sleeve does give a somewhat cloudy appearance, but gives a nice smooth finish and several minutes of glow. There are days when the glow out catches the flash, so they are not just for dark conditions. For best results with all of the glow products, charge in light or sunlight before use. The fastest way is to use a UV flashlight. Click the SHOP tab>Glow Series

The REALISTIC SERIES- I am a huge fan of JigSkinz, also NLO. This series uses JigSkinz realistic fish patterns over the bare lead. I try to choose jig blanks that match the shape of the bait series described. I have added a couple of other glow options with the blue and green mackerel. I have enhanced some of the JigSkinz offerings with Glow paint and clear coat, or longer lasting SuperGlow tape, while still maintaining the beautiful realistic appearance. I do offer several JigSkinz replacement covers for purchase. Click the SHOP tab> Realistic Series

JigSkinz.com offers numerous other sleeves.

I also added several items in the Realistic Series, Glow Series and some in the Flash Series with SuperGlow. This will glow for several hours with a 10 minute light charge. (UV Flashlight is the fastest way to charge any glow products)

*** I do not include hooks on most of the 6 oz and 8 oz jigs. Visit the Hooks Section for various options, or you may prefer your own.

I have also added DIY options for assist hooks including assist cord, split and solid rings, hooks and heat shrink. Please also visit the Tips and Techniques page for my experience and several article and video links from the “experts”.
