Congrats on your success!!!! The small marabou jigs are very effective but are overlooked for a variety of reasons and so the fish don't get conditioned to them. Thanks for watching and I really, really appreciate the feedback, I hope you tag another 6lber!!!

@@notsure8327 I will never buy any material that is from Wapsi anymore. I got some mallard flank that was on the small side from Hareline Dubbin. They sent me a replacement pack of mallard flank along with some decals. I let Wapsi know of the poor quality of not just their blood quill marabou but also their barred neck hackle. Not only didn't they replace it but they never even responded to me. I will not give them another red cent if I can help it.

What pre-made jig heads would you suggest to use for hair jigs in 3/32 and 1/8? I don't have a way to pour my own. I just wondered which you thought would make the best Maribou's? Thanks for the great videos!!

Thanks Joe!!! A simple ball head jig will work perfectly fine for a marabou jig. You can also get whatever jig head with the hook you want from a custom guy. Go to Tackle Underground in the wire baits section and ask if anyone can make jig heads for you.

Dale, click the link, kzitem.info/news/bejne/zWipu5eaqpVpjGU it is a tank test of the layered marabou jig which will look just like this one. Marabou jig tied in this manner all have the same type of action in the water. I'm in the process of cleaning my tank so you can look at the other tank test to give you an idea of what that will look like in the water.

Is there any kind of hackle or any other feather? I can have extended a little farther past the bend that when it’s in water it’ll still have a breathing type of movement almost like a tail either moving really fast twitch or like a slow waving action?
@smalljaw

I don't know of any other feather but there are different materials. From what you described I'd say use craft fur but it depends on how large the jig you are using with it.

Do you use a drying agent on the maribou? every time i tried to make a hair jig it shrunk in the water and had very little action. thanks for your time
@smalljaw
6 жыл бұрын
Thanks for watching. Yes, hair will compress and the action is very subtle which is what makes them so effective. A bait with a ton of action is great when fish are active but most of the time they are neutral so a small easy meal is difficult to pass up even when not actively feeding. Then you have cold water, in that situation the baitfish move slower and something with a subtle movement looks natural, something with a lot of action looks out of place.

Hello Smalljaw. I was wondering what you use for a base pin in your molds for an FG12 weed guard. I was instructed to mold the weed guard into the head when pouring. Obviously this would mean tying the jig with the weed guard in. I noticed that even with your smaller weed guards you put them in after tying. What’s your method please.
@smalljaw
5 жыл бұрын
On the molds that use the FG-12 weed guard I purchased a length of 5/64" diameter steel rod and cut my own 1.5" long pins. On molds that call for an FG-30 weed guard I had to take regular base hole pins to a machine shop. I had the bottom of the pin cut off and I had the top 1/8" of the pin turned down to 5/64" diameter.

Ok Small jaw, I'm confused. Is Marabou a duck? Or some other feathered mamel? Cause I was under the impression that it was from the deer family. Or are you tying Feather jigs and just using the name? Or should you be tying a "Hair jigs and calling it Marabou. I'm stumped.
@smalljaw

Thank you for watching and the question!!! Marabou is from a Turkey, there are different grades like blood quill, extra select, wooly bugger, and mini, here I use blood quill which will work for most hair jigs. Just to be clear, the marabou I use comes from a Turkey and the type I use most often is blood quill, but if I use another type it will be extra select but they are the 2 I use and all come from the Turkey.
