cadman Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 If you have to have that jig and you don't like their colors, pony up the money buy their jig, strip it and re-skirt it. I haven't seen any of those heads raw or painted without a skirt. Not to be rude, but why would some company that has made a name for themselves sell just raw or painted jigs so someone else can skirt them? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smalljaw Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 Yep, you have to strip one down, pretty expensive to tie your own unless the colors suit you in which you tie the skirt and cut the collar off. The idea of tying your own jigs is to save a few bucks by getting the components and putting them together yourself, it also allows you to customize colors. The reason for pouring your own jigs is to make a jig that isn't made by anyone else, it allows you to use the hook you want along with the sizes and colors you want, if there is something on the shelf that you like then you buy it. You can find heads that are close but not exact unless you buy the real deal, maybe if you contact Booyah direct they may be willing to sell you blanks heads but I'm guessing they won't be much cheaper.
