    My jig / lure

    I just discovered this forum a few days ago and thanks for allowing me to post.
    I make a few jigs / trolling lures as shown in the photo. My jigs seem to do great and have more action than the standard bucktails for casting to Cobia and dropping on rigs and wrecks. A small but increasing amount of folks are requesting them and and I thought I might try to sell a few on EBAY. They are mostly painted 3 & 4oz jig heads or the same head in a trolling style with double "Tuna" offshore skirts.
    I just started tieing double 7" eyeless octopus skirts such as the unpainted leadhead in the photo so that I could build brighter colors; although they are a bit more expensive to build.
    I would appreciate any feedback on the jigs and how you feel about the unpainted head with eyes. Something about making a lure look like a bass boat..........; anyway I like the look of the unpainted head.
    I would also like any advice on finding the 6.5 - 7.5 eyeless octopus skirts at a good price without having to order them from China.

    Thanks

    Thanks,
    3 & 4 oz are all I build now but I am looking at other heads and weights.
    Most of our bottom fishing is from 60 - 120 ' so 4oz covers that well.
