Official Jig Tie-Off Thread - Order Here

Post by islandflyfisher »

I am finally kicking it off!

Every jig is $3.50. I will be donating some materials, and a lot of labor. Thanks to Rob762 for donating jig heads!!! Donations will allow me to donate more $$ per jig. The minimum donation per jig will be $2.50. The goal is 100 jigs. I am going to donate all proceeds to St. Vincent de Paul. My grandpa does a lot of work for them, so I will give the money directly to him. They do things like give out Thanksgiving baskets to those in need in the community (this probably won't finish up that quick though.)I am not sure whether or not I will be able to give a follow up with what is done with the money, but I will try my best.

Delivery/Pickup/Shipping
Some regular forum members are welcome to pick up there jigs at my house. I don't want to offend anyone, but my parents are a little worried about the safety aspect. I have not met everyone on the forum. Again, sorry and please don't be offended.
Aside from that, I will try to meet up with people at Anglins and Deerfield Pier. My friends may also deliver the jigs for me.
I will be happy to ship, as long as buyer pays shipping and sends the payment before the jigs are shipped.

I have been tying like a madman for the last few days. I have tied 71 jigs so far - 2 of each style + more of some styles.

Those were just to make sure that there was going to be interest before I started it up and to give me an idea of what materials to buy, like it said on the other thread - no commitment involved in those posts.

Put me down for:

4 mack jigs, 2-1/4 & 2-3/8 one white/red flair and one green of each size
and 6 snappa jigs 2-1/8, 2-1/4, 2-3/8 one yellow/green and one white of each size

Not sure when I'll be up your way, I hope very soon though. Are you attending the Ch 2 cleanup?

I sent you a PM about this. I have to buy a different brand banana jig head for the bigger version of the snapper jig heads that are more expensive. So, for the tie-off I am limiting it to 1/16 and 1/8 oz 'snapper', banana jigs. Very sorry for the confusion.

Stop by and see me tomorrow. I will have a lot of jigs ready to sell.
You can also just say "hi". It would be nice to match some names with faces.

I should have posted this sooner but it slipped my mind. I picked up my jigs and they look superb. I haven't had a chance to fish them like I should have but I know the one I gave to Rory produced a nice Cero before getting cut. If you guys can, you should pick up a few.
