psilvers Posted April 17, 2016 Report Share Posted April 17, 2016 Here is a jig that I came up with that has a different action than the Scrounger. I can make them in sizes from 1/8 oz to 2 oz. This jig is all hair and flash. What do you guys think? Pete 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psilvers Posted April 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 Bladesandbaits - Thanks! When I initially developed this, several years ago, I didn't know about the Scrounger. Since then, I have tied these and I have tied Scrounger jigs. These do run differently than the Scroungers. The Scrounger may be better suited for soft plastics, this was developed for bucktails.

robn510 Posted May 8, 2016 Report Share Posted May 8, 2016 I like the action on them are you selling any? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smalljaw Posted May 9, 2016 Report Share Posted May 9, 2016 Pete, do you have a picture of it? Is there a blade on it or is it just a head? The action looks great but it is hard to see the jig itself. I was thinking of doing something similar with a material called "microlon" but I just never got around to getting the stuff.

psilvers Posted May 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2016 Robin510 - Sorry, we are not selling any, at least right now! Smalljaw - Sorry, I am not going to post a picture of the head because we are thinking of patenting the head design. It is pretty different from the Scrounger but we don't use a blade. I did try the Scrounger head but the Scrounger head does not have the same action - it just has a wobble. On this head I can make modifications depending upon whether you want a rapid or slow retrieve. When it is retrieved slowly you can see the hair/feathers "breathe". I will keep you posted.

Painter1 Posted May 16, 2016 Report Share Posted May 16, 2016 I can't see any difference between the jig in that fuzzy video and many other swim jigs. Not casting negativity - just my impression. I hope it works out for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
