making a lure in the Field

 how many times have you been fishing only to find the fish hitting your weight and not the hook?? here is a great idea i got from one of our members (JB)  . Take a plain hook and a small weight . clamp the weight on the hook right by the eye lit  . this will attract those same fish to your hook and you will catch fish. i have tried this  and it does work.  good luck  and fish on !!!

i make most of my own jigs and some times i will deliberatly not let one form all the way so i can try differant things out on the lake. i also carry my powder paint with at times to try differant color combinations. this paint doesn't take up much room and just a small propanr tourch gives you many color combos.
