Great weekend on the lh

I hear ya Chris,they really beat that mini-mite up.take some crazy glue and put a little around the head of the jig then slide the body onto it.it will hold the body in place allot longer and you will get much more out of it.

oh yeah i did that or it would've been toast a lot quicker...but they still ripped it to shreds! haha, the head stayed glued on but the tail was coming off. the little tubes are much cheaper though, i might start off with them next time, seemed to work just as well if not better that day. 90 percent of my fish were crappie and 90 percent of my friend's fish were perch...it was pretty crazy how they clearly preferred different lures.

little feathers or bucktail tied to a little jig would work too i'm sure.

1/64 or 1/32 of an oz Joe is what we have been using but I'm sure a little bigger would not hurt. I like the mini-mite because they are cheap.you catch 50 fish on it then you throw it over and tie a new one one.$1.50 for 50 fish,win
win in my book.
