Longball22 Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 I bought some of Dave's "ned heads" a few weeks ago, and it got me curious to see if there were any other regional folks making tackle. I think Dave's product is pretty publicized on here, but I hadn't seen anyone post about a company I found based in St. Louis. Fortunately they don't make finesse jigheads, so they aren't competing with you Dave. http://midwesttackleshop.com/ I decided to buy some jigs from these guys to see how they looked, and I am impressed. The pictures on their site are very accurate of what you will receive from them, and I was astounded at their prices: $1.99 For their Football Jigs, with wire tied skirts for durability(Living Rubber or Silicone). $.50 to add a rattle to any of them. $2.49-$2.69 for their Swing Jigs(2 pack), which is nearly identical to a Biffle Hardhead when put side by side, for 1/2 the price. I also got some of their drop shot weights, and they look great as well. All of their stuff looks as good as a lot of mass produced jig I've seen, so thought this was worth passing along.

Daryk Campbell Sr Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Good thread. I like supporting local people. Money is just ink and paper, worthless until it switches hands, and worthless again until the next transaction. (me) I am the master of my unspoken words, and the slave to those that should have remained unsaid. (unknown) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
