Dang.....G-man
« on: March 20, 2011, 11:54:57 AM »
I'm in love with your bumble bee finesse jig..... ;D  :2thumbs

I paired it with a FLW finesse claw trailer......Which I cannot find anymore.....Makes me sad. I got 17 packs....to last me hopefully awhile. I'm going to have to milk those soft plastic trailers to make em' last awhile.Already got some super glue.


Those trailers are the same ones that I had on the FLW finesse jigs they used to sell in walmart. I wanna kick the person in the tail for who discontinued those FLW lures.That was actually my first jig I used to catch my first bass on a jig n' craw.

Can you post a pic of them grim?  I might be able to make you a mold or tell you how to make one.

I don't know,I gotta ask the wife if we still have a usb cord for the camera. Otherwise she might have to do it with her cell phone(I don't have one). She's napping right now...so I gotta ask a little later. Give me till tomorrow to try and produce a snap shot of one of them.

They are small and those claw are the only  kind of claws I've seen on these things.I've tried high and low looking for somebody else making a similar one and I'm not having any luck doing so.

Close but not quite.Chigger craw has too much action in the claws. I never do well in cold water with those claws moving so much as you see on the standard paca craw type claws.

The FLW bait I'm holding is truly a finesse craw.I believe smaller too.Action is very subtle.

I need to dig out my tackle tomorrow and see if I can find a comparison between the chigger craw and the FLW craw.

Grim I can tell you how to make a bondo mold if you want to make your own.  It really is easy to do.  I know I offered but I just got 4 farms and a couple of hundred wild cattle dumped on my plate so I'm covered up for a while.

Don't worry about it Jig man. Thanks for trying to help me though.  I'm worried about those claws not showing up right on the bondo mold. I'm not so sure it's gonna work to be honest. I might give it a try later on.
