    Default micro jigs

    Anyone know where I can get some micro jigs (1/80 oz. in size 10 or 12) in bulk? Buddy of mine sent me a fly that seems killer and I need to make up a bunch of these. If you have some and would like to part with 100-200 please email me.
    Thanks,
    Greg

    If you are looking for them undressed, Cabelas sells them with unpainted heads for $13/100. Do a search on their site for 1/80

    Bass Pro does. I buy cards of 12 for $3. They have a good selection of sizes and colors, at least in the Nashville (Opry Mills) store. Their website shows an assortment: [url=http://www.basspro.com/servlet/catalog.TextId?hvarTextId=37539&hvarDept=175&hvarE vent=&hvarClassCode=2&hvarSubCode=4&hvarTarget=bro wse:cb06c]http://www.basspro.com/servlet/catalog.TextId?hvarTextId=37539&hvarDept=175&hvarE vent=&hvarClassCode=2&hvarSubCode=4&hvarTarget=bro wse[/url:cb06c]

    I didn't see the cards of 12 listed on-line.

    Greg,

    I think that you may be looking for the 1/124th ounce Ball Style Jig Heads. The ones offerd at Bass Pro shops are not exactly the same, however they should work fine. I think both the silver and the gold would give some nice flash to your flies. Just a thought...

    I'm glad this subject came up.

    I bought a bunch of those from BassPro, but I find the marabou doesn't undulate in the water. In fact, it all sticks together in a tight bundle. Anyone else experience this? I might as well just fish buggers.

    Yes have experience that and what we do to compensate for it is make the marabou on those bass pro shop jigs as sparse as possible and it seeme to help and makes a world of difference when trout fishing.

    Basspros micro jigs has about 5 times the marabou you need.
