    The game plan played out to perfection with my bro sticking his personal best walleye… EVER… on a BFT Draggin’ Jig. Again, leeches were the ticket for the larger walleyes with very few fish falling for a crawler.

    Here’s another pic of the same fish.

    Today the biggies were holding TIGHT into sumberged timber in the side channels and the draggin’ jigs fished right through the crud w/o a problem.

    What a beast!

    I can’t wait to get a hold of some of these new jigs. Anyone have a close-up shot of one?
    Thanks,

    Mike: I see you wasted no time letting the money I gave you Friday burn a hole in your pocket. Thanks for the roof rack.

    Well it’s been a long time comin, thats for sure….

    I remember about 3 years ago when this was just a brain storm in a couple of guys heads…

    Now here we are doing the fine tuning to them…

    I will be pouring as many as I can as fast as I can this week and next, then off to the painter, and I will try to get them available just as soon as I can

    Unless someone has a painted one or two around I could get you some pix of some un painted ones..

    I was out Draggin’ today fishing with my brother who was in town on leave from the navy. I haven’t seen him in nearly TWO full years so today was an extra special day. The goal was to send him home with a few fish for a meal and to help him stick a PIGGIE.

    John and I had a great day with 6 fish in the 22″ – 25″ range (plus an absolute TANKER!). This first pic is me with a 23″ walleye caught on an orange BFT Draggin’ Jig and a leech.

    These jigs will go through just about anything yet have the weedguard in just the right position to allow for consistent hook-ups. If you’ve ever fished weedless head you know how much you give up in hooking percentage any time you throw a weed guard on a jig… these jigs sport a 1/0 hook and provide the best hooking percentage I’ve ever seen out of a weedless head while still fishing through the nastiest wood or rock.

    I remember about 3 years ago when this was just a brain storm in a couple of guys heads…

    Now here we are doing the fine tuning to them…

    I will be pouring as many as I can as fast as I can this week and next, then off to the painter, and I will try to get them available just as soon as I can

    Unless someone has a painted one or two around I could get you some pix of some un painted ones..
