I have given into the Fish/Eyes. I usually fish Northern Wisconsin(vilas/U.P.) for Muskies/Bass on lures especially plastics. The Fiish say they want MEAT. I am looking for someone who makes custom weedless jigs for Leeches/Crawlers and some for redtails. I am a rookie to Walleyes but know real good quality tackle works. I guess I am looking for some weedless jigs in 1/16oz for crawlers/leeches and probably some 1/16(to heavy?) for the chubs. My uneducated guess would be light wire hooks, maybe oversize, wire weedguard, maybe a 60 degree hook with a pointed head(swimin). If you want to share the info great, if you want to pm me the info is just between me and you. I understand alot of you guys tournament fish and cashing a check takes a lot of hard work and time on the water and expense. I know how to keep QUIET and understand a FISHING secret ! I need to get educated on what Works and where to buy this special tool. Have a Nice Finish to the 2009 season. Roy

If you want to stock up on some of the absolute best Walleye products available just check out Hutch. Call him up and tell him what you're looking for, he probably either has it or can get it. His site is http://www.riverwalleyes.com/fishing-tackle.html

I second the vote for hutchies. Nice stuff.

PS one of my favorite combos is the hutchie gold live back glitter in 5/16 with a gulp! black shad 3" for vertical jiggin.

I would have thought there was alot of good home jig makers willing to share a few of their jigs. I guess I will check out these places.

I got an option for you... Komo and others... try the jackel Flick shake head... these tungsten jigheads are made for wacky rigging plastics for bass but I've been useing them with 3" gulp leechs and minnows with great results... they have a very light wire hook that is over sized... the hooks on these amazing... with a little weedguard... they are very pricey but Really worked well with the 3" gulp stuff... They'd be great under a slip float...
As far as other types... this Hutch guy place looks great with excellent reviews...
