jig molds - couple questions

[Wooly]

Two quick questions:

1. On the do-it molds-- which weedless jig molds would you recommend ( have the arky & football ). I was looking at the banana jig.

2. Have any of you guys used the Hilts blank mold -- this is where you can make your own mold using the moldable plastic insert? I was wondering if this is any good for jigs.

thanks,

I really like the Arky and screwlock football jig molds. I've never tried a blank mold mostly because of the trouble and expense of having it machined. Better off just buying one.

I have the Hilts do it yourselfer.Kind of a pain in the ass but it is workable.

Give it a shot.

Wooly,

The Banana Jig is very good fos what it was designed. Also called a Grass Jig it does very well in the grass or thick weeds. The body is slimmer than an Arky, the hook eye is more foward and closer to the body. Because of this it tends to fall over in open water unless you keep it moving. Hope this helps.
