    Gluing Jig Hooks

    After learning a few things about OEM hooks recently, I have started gluing all my hooks for here going forward. It just locks everything together and makes them indestructo. One drop of liquid super glue wicks inside the wrap and makes it a solid mass out of the cord and servings.

    Very smart move and its refreshing that someone is actually thinking about improvements even if they are slight. People who fish get it. You have a great mindset for this and your customers will appreciate the extra effort and BTW the feather hook looks like a winner

    Here is another little thing I have found. If you put a drop of superglue onto the cord (the white part in the photo) it makes it a hybrid stiff rig.


    Hey G....James caught his first ball last night. It was a bounce pass, but after he caught one, we were able to complete about 8 more out of 20 tries.

    thats what its all about, you will have him catching fish and playing ball in no time. Much better news than hooks, kids are amazing.

    Anthony had to wrestle the number two kid in the state on tuesday and unfortunately he lost and then he had the number 4 kid tonight. I was worried because he was so upset and I challenged his toughness and he responded by pinning him in second period.

    Nothing is more important than that child you have right there, enjoy the years as they go fast

    The Hybrid Stiff Rig. You can do this with any assist hook. I don't know that anyone else has ever done this? But here it is, maybe for the first time anywhere?

    Thread your cord up through your solid ring.





    Loop the cord back over the ring locking it in place.





    A very small drop on each cord. It will wick up and down the cord.




    Now a drop down the shrink wrap to bulletproof the connection and your solid.
