I got some, they look good and got shipped quick, but I haven't fished them at all yet. So I'm anxiously waiting for any responses to this thread too.

Thats the difference between a good jig and a hunk of lead. As it bends the surface of the jig bends at a different rate than the finish and the two materials separate.



I have seen thousands of jigs from all over the world. To me a good jig has a three part finish - glow paint, holographic foil and a touch of color. The metal mix to make a jig hard, but not so hard its brittle, is tough.



But that soft lead costs about half of what a good tri-metal jig costs to make. The tri-metal giving smoothness, weight and hardness.

Isn't the real test of quality whether the jig will catch fish???
