BTW Guys, those of you using the SLP tool, where are you buying it. I haven't seen it anywhere for sale? Thanks

Thanks for all the feedback guys. I bought the HH Type "R' and it should be here soon.

After reading, all the threads here about the different tools sold to remove the pin, which one works the best out of all of them currently. Boca, Headge Hog or SLP. Also where can I purchase them. I am trying to put bearings on a Revo premier Gen 1 reel thanks for the help I use the Hedgehog Studi...

Skirtmaster tool. Been using one for 20 years now. They are still made and I personally think the best tool out there for loose stranded skirts.

I think I have something with a heavy Gamakatsu hook for you. PM me you e-mail, so we can communicate that way as it would be easier.

Smalljaw, hit the nail on the head. First of all make sure you know of proven spots that hold fish, otherwise you will get frustrated trying to learn how to use a jig and catch fish with them. My nephew fishes from shore all the time, and he uses a grass jig. Grass jig is another name for a swim jig...

mprestonSEK,
I sent you a PM on some options.

Both of those baits look fantastic.

Previously , I have been of the opinion to use a jig trailer color very close to the color of the jig . Now many of the jig colors (i.e. Dirty Jigs) come in amazing realistic colors with several different color strands found in one jig ! Whose to say any more what a proper jig / trailer combination...

First day of winter in less than a week (can you believe it ?) ... To many , Winter means dragging a jig to entice a better quality of bass to bite . What is your favorite jig / trailer combo ? For me : Bass Patrol Brown / Green Pumpkin 3/8th oz and 1/2 oz. football jig in living rubber and silicon...

I personally use the Snootie, Grass and the Poison Tail. Although all of these can be used as swim jigs, I use them for different things. Not to say that they can't be adapted for your style of fishing. On the Snootie, I like the upturned 60 degree eye, as I like to bounce or hop this jig on the bot...
