Thanks everyone!

When making jigs with weed guards do you mold the weed guard in when pouring or do you glue it in after painting? I like my jigs with a hand tied skirt. Do you tie your skirt in before or after you attach the weed guard? Thanks, Tony

Just wondering how many people sell the lures & tackle they make? Sell because you have made to many & need room to make more. Sell to pay for your hobby. Sell as a side business. sell as a full time business.

I was wondering where everyone buys all of their supplies you use for tackle making? If you build tackle to sell do you buy it wholesale or retail? Thanks, Tony

I tie a lot of flies & jigs & I'm looking for a place to sell some of the stuff I make. Besides eBay what other venues do you guys sell your creations on? I looked at cave crafts.com but there hasn't been any activity there since I first looked at it last year. I even tried to contact them to see what's up with the site but never received an email back so I assume that they aren't really operating the site. Thanks, Tony

Has anyone made their own rod covers like the Stick Jacket or Rod Glove? If so where did you get the braided tubing & how did you make them? Thanks, Tony

Very nice!!!! Did you paint the reel yourself or did someone else? I would love to get more info on painting reels like that. Thanks, Tony P -
Your flies look great. I work with epoxy a lot in my tying & here are some of my findings that might help. 5 minute epoxy will yellow over time. Hard Head works good but you have to use multiple coats to get the build of epoxy. One negative with the Hard Head is it will start to turn milky white if your fly spends considerable time in the water. I use Devcon 2-Tone Clear Epoxy. You will get about a half hour work time with it. What I do is to work in small batches & mix it on a piece of aluminum foil to spread out a little. This will help the air bubbles come to the surface quicker so they can pop. If you have a lot of air bubbles you can warm the bottom of the foil which will force the bubbles up where you can blow on them to pop but you will loose some work time when heating epoxy. Tony P -
I agree 100%! I guess I'm just a little anal when it comes to the materials & colors I use . Tony P

Skunk is usually to soft for the patterns that I use bucktail in but it is a great material for many patterns. Tony P
