6.5oz megabait-style jigs, cast from wheelweight alloy in a home-made mold. Made with a custom one-piece eyelet wire-form made from 0.065" or 0.076" stainless wire-- extra heavy duty to stand up to a lot of reef-pounding abuse.
The jigs are foiled, and then painted. The paint has a pearlescent micro-glitter applied, but its quite difficult to capture in a photo. Eyes are home-made 3-D ultra glow. Clearcoat with Devcon, but the jigs can also be clearcoated by heating (before eyes are glued on!) in an oven to 375* and then clear powdercoated-- works like a charm.
Good fishing, and I hope you enjoy the photo!
