skeeterman24 Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 Does anyone add a trailer keeper to their jigs? What wire or material do you use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Maxwell Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 I sometimes add a keeper to my spinnerbaits and buzzbaits. I use .015 SS Wire. Bend a loop on one end to go thru eye of hook and place in mold along bottom of hook. After pouring head, put approx. 130 degree bend in other end of wire. I usually wait till painting is complete and skirt is tied on. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike-A-Pike Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 Last year, Kelly, a fellow member created a member submitted tutorial on "Screw Locks" that has helped a lot of members. If you're planning to pour your own jig heads, you may need to modify your molds a bit. Good luck and tight lines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
