"How To" | Build a Squid Jig

[@Jimbobin247]

5:27 I normally like to use the wider squid jig hook to just snag the squid on the surface. And by the way, the jig needs to be weighted

[@ahxpluhh]

Does the jig has to be weighted for snagging surface squid? I notice the ones on the surface aren't usually eating.

[@Jimbobin247]

@@ahxpluhh yes, the jig need a weight, sorry if i didnt say that.

[@Jimbobin247]

Hello, Thanks for Vid. Now I want to make my own jigs. Where to I all the material? I found hooks and rods but not able to find the weighted body/lead .. much appreciated it if you can share the info.

[@HolyMolyOutdoors]

I make all my own bodies, you can find some at local tackle shops. Sportco/outdoor emporium for example.

[@sethsoumphonphakdy7413]

Thank you Sir!

[@HolyMolyOutdoors]

@@sethsoumphonphakdy7413 of course! For painted bodies you may have to go to the custom makers.

Hi. What type of paint do you use to paint the body of the jig?

[@HolyMolyOutdoors]

All are powder paint coated

[@ducmintran]

Thank you. Where do you purchase your accessories from?

[@mccurjm]

Great tutorial! You should start selling fly tying and jig building supplies to go along with the videos. :)

[@HolyMolyOutdoors]

Where do you get those weights?

[@HolyMolyOutdoors]

I make the weights myself for these jigs

[@vincentslearningwithkids9476]

Can you show how you put the first bead on the hook? My bead won’t fit.

[@0hch5]

what material do you use to make the weighted body?

[@HolyMolyOutdoors]

I pour all my own bodies

[@HolyMolyOutdoors]

It is a poured lead body

[@wojomojo]

Just in time! Where in Seattle do you get the weighted body, already painted?

[@HolyMolyOutdoors]

Some local tackle stores sell them. I make my own and paint them

[@Tapperlite1]

@@HolyMolyOutdoors If I may ask, how do you make the bodies? Is it a barrel weight mold process?

[@vinny33912]

What the mm of the pony beads

[@HolyMolyOutdoors]

I believe these are 6mm

[@jeremymantyla3612]

Hey my homie came to support my peeps. Great job my brother 🍻

[@bobberdownfishing5100]

Where do you get the materials?

[@HolyMolyOutdoors]

There are a couple tackle stores that sell all the components. Ted's Sportscenter in Lynnwood is where I get mine. I would ask your local retailer to see.
