I started making my own version of homemade jigging raps. I opted to not use the bottom treble to see if this helps me lose less from snags. I am going to use a smaller brush tomorrow with the ones I will be making then instead of the finger nail polish brush. I ended up using a wooden mold I made with a Dremel. I used a very small Dremel bit on each end for the hooks to rest in and used tape to keep them upright. I'm documenting it all so I will have a video online soon of the process I took, but the lead free silver solder works great. I'm not going to worry about the little plastic part I don't think and want to see if this will catch some eyes. The moment of truth will be when I can get out fishing in my kayak which I hope will be soon! I'll be focusing on better quality painting as I move forward. I also may experiment with plaster of Paris as a mold too.
