VersatileFuturian Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 How do you guys attach rattles to your jigs? I hand tie my jig skirts and want to put rattles on my power swimming jigs. Do you guys have any tips on a more secure way to attach the rattles besides adding a rubber rattle collar that breaks? Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apdriver Posted June 30, 2015 Report Share Posted June 30, 2015 If I wanted to do it without the rubber collars, I would buy some of these and just hand tie them in. Should work good as they have a big divot your thread would fit right in. http://lurepartsonline.com/Online-Store/Rattles/Jig-Skirt-Rattles.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayburnGuy Posted June 30, 2015 Report Share Posted June 30, 2015 I have seen rattles attached with heat shrink tubing. Just cut the appropriate size tubing a tad longer than the rattle and when you apply heat it will draw down and the extra length will shrink over the ends of the rattle so it can't slip out the ends.
