| Need some help, in early & late 90's my father & I got informed about some super walleye jigs produced by legendary angler Bill Binkleman. For years we would send an order in by mail and in a couple months (sometimes more ) they would arrive -definately worth the wait.
What set these jigs apart from the standard was the excellent finish, but more so the hooks! they were fine wire for great hooksetting, they would bend out of snags(rock) but could be bent back for continued use with no loss in strength, and they used #4 and #2 even in the large size jigs(up to 1 oz), rather than the 1/0 and 2/0 or larger many times found.
Although I have several dozen stock piled, my father has depleted his reserves and they are no longer available to my knowledge.
Does anyone know of some similar products they can recommend or does anyone have any Binkleman jigs stockpiled they are willing to part with? I would appeciate any product/manufacturer recommendations you can come up with-Thanks in advance

| Been pretty impressed with gopher jigs, good sticking power and get several bends back and forth on them as well.

Location: Annandale, MN | Dennis is right on, Hutch's jigs are great! I've been hitting some decent river smallies, walleyes and crappies lately on his 3/16 oz chart hair jigs.  |

| Gentleman, I took a look at Hutch's jigs and they look great. Every color and size you can imagine. I just have one question. Are these jigs designed for strictly for river/curent situations, or are they an all around type jig that can be used for casting and dragging applications in lakes. I guess I'm having trouble deciphering the head style when looking at them on the site. |

| The walleye flasher can't be beat as an all around jig. Any movement or current sets the blade to spinning and walleye can't resist them.
