River jigin Posted January 12, 2007 Report Share Posted January 12, 2007 I have only seen hydrosilk skirts on Janns netcraft but the colors are basic and I would prefer to get layers. Just wondering if anybody knows where to get layers or just a better selection of colors? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cadman Posted January 12, 2007 Report Share Posted January 12, 2007 Jig master is right. The last catalog I got from them, they had 72 different color skirts. From hot pink, red, chartreuse, flo-orange, flo-blue and so on. You can buy them banded up, or you can buy them buy the spool, cut your own and then band them up. I use them exclusively, and love the action of the rounded strands. You can reach them at : Timberlake Mfg. 650 South St, Indians,PA 15701. Phone # is 724-465-8735.....

fish devil Posted January 14, 2007 Report Share Posted January 14, 2007 what do you like better, living rubber or hydro silk? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadman Posted January 14, 2007 Report Share Posted January 14, 2007 I don't know about Living Rubber, but I like Hydrosilk, because the strands are soft and round, and they look more lifelike to me in the water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earthworm77 Posted January 14, 2007 Report Share Posted January 14, 2007 Hydrosilk will not gum up like rubber sometimes does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
