Putting your jig molds in the microwave, really helps to warm everything up at once. Your mold, your microwave and even your garage with smoke and flames. Really gets you cozy and ready to bang out a lot of jigs.
One way I learned to paint my jigs is to put all your jigs in the oven, get them all preheated for quicker painting. Saw a local manufacturer doing this at a big show. I turn mine to 400 just because the door gets opened more often. Grab each one to dip, let them all cool. Put them back in for the hardening bake. Took me less than an hour total to paint 30 jigs for the St Clair River.
Love the lure making videos! Might get into it this winter! Great vid bud. Once the border opens up and we can get to the cottage we will have to link up!
I'm not much of a bass guy more of a walleye guy, my second year going for bass, I like your videos I learn so much from you about bass fishing! My best spot in kenora is tunnel island from the shore, come try it out sometime, that'd be awesome to meet you, I think your best angler I know!!!!
So not to nit pick but I have a jig making business and you say there is a cost saving but there really isn't, initial cost is high and the molds, melter, bulk paint etc eat the savings till the 4000 plus jig mark.. it the customizable part is spot on.. couple tips. Use a heat gun instead of candles, it's hotter, faster and cleaner heat (allows the paint to adhere better). Screw the pot down to the table (more secure and less chance of spill). Put a block of wood under the spout of the pot so you aren't holding the weight of the lead/mold (more accurate and safer).

Insane amount of knowledge in this one! Great stuff as always, Jay!

Just a tip that I do, use a candle to “soot” your molds, it helps the lead flow into your jigs molds so much better. You get a lot less miss pours.

I use a heat gun for warming up the jigs for painting, works perfect.

Jay you can heat the mold and pour all cavities in on shot.
Use a heat gun to preheat your jigs prior to dipping and make an air bed for your powder paint,
Great video please more like this
Awesome vid 🍻
Thanks man ✌️
Nice Jay!
Best lead is sheeting in the walls from a X-ray lab when its remodeled
Do your jigs come out better when using a " mad hustle " scented candle ?
Adam Smith LoL
Get a heat gun to heat your jigs for paint. Makes the process go much quicker. Cant wait for more molds myself.
Crushing!
What size (2500, 3000, ect) reel are you using with the 7ft MediumLight rod? The rod/reel you were using with the hair jig. Thanks and Great Channel
So good!
Seeing that snow just gave me PTSD.
Post the kayak specs or brand and model. Great video Thanks
Jimmy has gas again.

Hey Jay! We are taking a stab at jig making this winter. Can you tell me what mask you are wearing in this video ?
“I like to do it do it”... molds
Which wire keepers did you get?
How much does it cost to get the tools and such for pouring lead jigs?
Does Ontario open water season start earlier than manitoba? I thought season opener is tomorrow?
Where did u pickup your production pot and jig molds? Is there anywhere in Canada I can get them? Thanks
Sorry! I got them from Do-it molds in the states
What was the water temp where u were catchin them?
i take it that you will take my advice again and thanks for bleeping out the name also thanks for fishing there it means a lot to me
Keep the lure making videos coming. Get Sam back out fishing.
Jay- you list/link all of your equipment but no mention of your camera pole/post. What make and model would it be?
Sorry, my go pro accessories are all ordered from amazon
Been waiting for this!
use a Demel to clean out your eyelets....Jay
Like in Monster Squad when the Cool Guy, Rudy(?) makes the silver bullets to kill Wolfman...
I need to make an order from you Haha ,
What kind of mic are you using on the kayak?
Jays been smoking...forgot his rods...reminds me of the 80s...we always forgot our rods
What kayak is that
u should blacken your molds also.
The lake I fish in southern Wisconsin isn’t even 48 degrees yet😭😭

The hair looks unreal at 7:00
It’s hear it’s hard to land a drone on a boat, but how hard is it on a KAYAK!!??
The first person disliked 🤦🏽♂️
Adds are getting a little outta hand
Nice! I wish you didn’t take the mask down all the time! Doesn’t sound terrible through the mask... or do a voiceover!
