Dutch Posted February 26, 2018 Posted February 26, 2018 That guy has found components way cheaper than I did. It is pretty straight forward and simple. The only thing I'd recommend is using 3 or 4" PVC if you are doing bass size jigs. The 2" would work well for crappie and white bass size jigs but a 1/2 oz on a 4/0 hook would be a challenge in a 2" cup.
Foghorn Posted February 27, 2018 Posted February 27, 2018 Hey Dutch, most of the jigs I cast are on size 6-10 hooks so not sure how well I could hold them with a set of forceps. Some paints don't set up in the eye of the hook and some do every time. Not sure if some of the powder might be older or what. Thanks for the idea-will give a shot on the bigger hooks next time. If you can call a size 6 bigger.
