Suggestion for securing hair. After a few wraps securing hair, wrap and tighten with 28 gauge floral wire then finish wrapping normal. Hair should hold a lot better. Walmart had best price. Hope this helps. Might not be an easier way to tie but should hold better.
Nice I use alcohol on the hook at home to help with the shad body when I change them, goes in easier. On the water changes bottled water works. I prefer not to use saltwater.
Nice jobs on the Mojos! I buy some every year for 10-$13. I'd consider making them, but not sure I'd ever break even on the supplies. Would you mind sharing what it costs to make a 10oz mojo? Just a single unit - not the molds and special tools....If you're doing this as a business then no need to share costs - I understand.
I usually pay $1.00 per pound for lead, hooks range between .25 and $1.00. Skirts and tail around five bucks. Thread, paint and such minimal cost per lure. Hope this helps
rubber band is just a holder while tying, it comes off before using. they are tied in reverse in order to give a larger profile when running in the water
you've had some practice to be sure but you really do make this look easy. Nice video thanks.
Great video! You make it look easy

Nice job...thanks.
I use one of the wifes hair clips to hold the hair while tying. Easy to remove and reposition when needed
Great video
Cool dude
Nice video. What leader lengths do you use?
👍...perhaps if you elevated the clamp from the table and angled the clamp towards you instead of parallel with the table. Awesome video.
I have been tying jigs for over 35 years. You did a great job explaining the entire process. Can I ask what mold and hook you use for your tog jigs?
I got the mold on eBay, its a Collins mold I believe. The hooks I use for the tog jigs are VMC black nickel
@@redline927 thank you!!
Awesome video!!! I have been searching for a video on making Mojos!!! one question where can I obtain the nylon hair? Ebay is extremely expensive!
ive gotten it on Amazon before. Not sure where it can be gotten cheaper but I can make quite a few mojos with a box of nylon hair
@@redline927Thanks for the reply much appreciated!!!! I will take a look in amazon
Nice

Awesome video, looks great. Do you sell your mojo rigs? Very interested. Thanks
Taking a break from it at the moment but plan to get back into it! check out my instagram page if interested

could you put a link or give the company name on the nylon hair please and the size....tia
Does the rubber band stay on or do you take that off? And any thoughts as to why mojos have hair tied in reverse compared with a traditional bucktail?
