Not too sure bigbruce let me see what they cost me to make. Shipping is not a problem but if you wanted some I can get anther member to see you that's coming here April 3rd thats from Comox . I've only got 8 skirts but obviously can get more.
 
Thanks.I seen the skirts at Army and Navy while picking up this $30 jigging rod for my kid.bought a few and was playing around. Turned out pretty good.there for my buds that wanted circle jigs .The black hooks are 20/0 I had everything laying around here except the skirts. I picked up some stuff today to make more but price was higher as I usually buy in bulk from the US and wen you want to make em while you watch TV gotta pay lol .I bought them cause the colours match my glow sticks almost too a tee. I am making some up right now with new components. Ill post a picture.

Components include
1.5lb coated glow weight
delta double glow skirt
4 glow beads
3 smaller green beads
150lb mono
onwer hyper split ring
2 aluminum compression sleeves
Half a small paint roller for a sent chamber
20/0 black hook only have 5 or 18/0 tinned mustad
1 small black copper crimp

Add 2 pieces surgical tubing

I WILL BE GIVING THESE JIGS AWAY FOR FREE!!! PM me for details

Those look great, CCB. If you're interested in making and selling them, I'd sure like 3 with at least 11/2 lb weights. I fish a lot up Telegraph Cove way and with the currents up there, a heavier weight is needed.
 
Okay Bigbruce for the over whelming responce for these jigs I have to go and buy more skirts and beads the cost is $13per jig with $1.50 extra for a extra hook and tubing and crimps and line just in case you have to cut the hook off or 1 free jig for every 5 15lb cannon ball purchased or 6 12s or 8 10s I am coming to Victoria on Friday or I can get member to pick some up April 3rd to take back to Comox.

fishnfnatic ,you would have to come down to Victoria or up to Comox or have them shipped to your place 100lbs or more is the best shipping value If you needed cannon balls if not shipping on 10lbs is $12 shipping on 100lbs is $30
 
Another member from Comox is heading to Victoria this weekend so anybody on the way may be able to pick up these jigs from him and not have to pay for shipping or very little. just to give him a little somethin for his trouble.I will work out some details .
 
Sounds great, CCB. I recently bought some coated cannon balls from a fellow in Courtenay that I suspect were yours so if we're talking about the same guy, I know him. Let us know when you've got the details worked out.
 
Yeah I would think so but it's too far for me to go and just get hooks and no where close to me has good hooks to put on. Then a courier would double the price if the hooks. Didn't really intead to build a jig to sell. I have enough going on as it is. Anyways took me a while but I found some more skirts ill try to post up some more pictures later with different colours . I still have to find cheap paint rollers all the dollar stores got crap .Home depot it is.
 
I guess I'm playing devils advocate here But how do these circle hooks work on a jig? I thought that a circle hook worked by letting the fish take the bait and swim away with it -the hook would rotate and lip hook the fish-jerking up or setting the hook was a no-no. I usually work a jig up and down-sometimes aggressivly-will this not negate the effectiveness of the circle hook?
 
I have never had a problem but the whole thing started as my buds wanted jigs with Circle hooks. I can put whatever hook you want on them treble ,circle, jay it doesn't matter. I'm going to rig some up that you can use the circle hook on a spreader bar with the weight separate. Ill post more pictures later. They can be custom made to how ever somebody wants them.
 
Not trying to be negative or picky just want to understand how you fish the jig with a circle hook-do you still"ring the dinner bell" with it( bounce bottom). When you have a take-what do you do?
 
No no spring fever it's all good. I don't ring the bell. I have not actually used this one yet I have used smaller 1 lb weights with a circle hook to a berkley 10 inch squid and no spreader bar I do very well. I don't hook up 100% of the time but when I use the circle hook it's a lot. No just sit on the bottom and drag when the Hali is a suckin let it run off count to 10 and pull up , works for me. Gotta know how to use the circle hooks well or yeah prob lose a lot of fish. I will rig up a few different ways after dinner and post some pics I can custom how ever with a spreader bar or without a spreader bar and so on. Like I said a bud wanted some with the circle hook so I whipped em up but now it seems I need options lol . If your comfortable using circle hooks use em if not use a treble or j hook . Im not gona lie I don't use trebles all circles and j's
 
Sorry Clint lol . Here some variations anybody can make up these jigs super easy but it's not much less then what I would sell for. I found a couple p line jigs and took the trebles from there just to show as the hooks on p line are solid. Need to find some of those. If anybody wants just the sticks there 1.5lbs all glow the whites crazy just ask Clint and Pete GDW. Thanks to FB for making me get white. Lots on the way like lots lol. I prefer pink and glow for Hali but I have no pink yet but lots on the way.

Enjoy
