I'm planning on moving to a new server within the next 2 to 3 weeks. Just a little friendly warning as there might be a few hours of odd behavior when the process starts. I will try to have it done at night or weekend.

Not trying to start an argument but am I the only one that thinks these are all hype? Seams like they hang up a lot more due to the weed gaurd being off the hook so far

I've had no issue. I like them way better than the Strike Kings that I used to throw.

Right now im throwing siebert outdoors nice jigs for 3$ Wire tied good colors old arkie style

I've had no issues either, and I think they are some of the best jigs in my arsenal. I just picked up 4 of the swim jigs last month from Al & Bob's and love them. I've been catching fish on all of them and I think they are worth the hype. Just curious, which jigs are you having issues with and what are you throwing them on?

Got Fish??

There not magic, but it is a  different presentation. Sometimes that's all it  takes. I have some in  my arsenal. I have all types of jigs, I just keep switching them up. Until I find one that  produces fish.

I have at least 2 of everything they make.  I catch fish on most of them (Haven't thrown a Freak in some time but did catch fish on them last year).  Dan and company make a great product.
Addicted to fishing.  All the time, any species, anywhere!!  Especially in West Michigan!!!

braid mainly dock monkeys on a 7'3 rod dont get me wrong they skip a country mile but seems like the weedgaurd being off the hook as much as it is causes them to hang up more than others and they're expensive had just as good of luck with cheaper ones

Mojo

See - now I like that they seem to hand up more. Maybe sloooow down here. When I hang up I'm going so slow that I feel when I'm hung up, stop reeling . It causes that hellified skirt to flair and sometimes that's when I get bit. I try to 'work' my jigs, not rip em when they get hung.

The dock monkey's I throw are taking a beating on St Clair in them zebra beds .... but I still have nearly all the paint, and hooks are still razor sharp..... These guys are my favorite sponsor cause the product is such high quality.

Ok - so beyond the hype, have you tried their 'shrunken mojo' umbrella rig ? in Sept and Oct, this will drop your jaw, because Kustom Kicker tightened and shortened the umbrella so it is a true ball of bait.

Also try their darter heads on a 7" worm of curly tail worm this month.  The darter head causes the fall to swim down not curl. IT got the biggest reaction from the fish tanks when I threw them at the show last year. People got out of their seats to see the reaction each cast!! So there's some ideas if you are interested.  ;D
Thanks Dan for bringing year round Catch and Release to Michigan
