  • New Flounder jigs

    Got bored today so I modified an inline sinker mold and made these flounder jigs. 2oz 3oz and 4oz. perfect for Vertical jiggin in current.

    Nice looking jigs, Pinch. Those will look awesome with a Gulp grub or jerkshad on them, or a piece of cut bait. I'm curious to see how the one with the spinner blade works while flounder jigging. I've caught sublegal flounders on a grub with a spinner arm, and a big inline spinner might be even better.

      Yea its hard to see in the picture but the jig with the massive inline spinner is about 7'' long with a Diachi 4o hook. I think these will work great. I bought an Offshore angler jigging rod rated 2.5oz-7.5oz to use with these. All of the hooks swing freely behind the lead and are attached with crimped 60lb cable. I learned at the TKAA tournament that jigging 5oz on a 2oz rated rod is difficult. It takes 3-5oz to maintain a good vertical jig over the tubes of cbbt in current anything less planes out and destroys your presentation.

                Those are very cool. Nice take on the traditional Chrome bullet style flounder jig.

                Man, I had no idea you needed that kind of weight to fish that area. Those look good.

                      You could make some of these too, saw them on ebay. Bank sinker, hoochie skirt and a swing hook. Looks kinda interesting, but basically what you have already.
