Good Afternoon Eric Very good to see you back ! I understand what you are saying about Simple . Here in North Carolina , We had a terrible Hot Summer ! It put a Hurt on trying to enjoy fishing That is a decent looking jig ! Besides your heavy work load Wearing you out, Take Care and Be Safe!!
There is no wrong way to tie jigs as long as you keep your stuff tight this is a true artist at work he has been my favorite tyer to watch and I have been tying 11 years myself.
Eric, if you do just one more wrap with your chenille at the end ( over wrap) you end up with a fuller body and not as much thread showing at the neck…..Nice Rootbeer / white color scheme.
Eric, thank you for helping us who are just beginning to tie. One question I have is what sally hensen do you use. There are several different types. Thanks Gary
Hey Eric, great tie! Just curious, what is your preferred method for fishing jigs like this? Under a slip bobber? Cast and retrieve? Appreciate your insight
I’ve been doing like you said, looking all over the place for tying material mostly EBay . Have found stuff at Walmart, but found some chenille at hobby lobby , I think it’s 62 yds between $5 &$6. Also found a 64 yds bundle at Dollar Tree. They are a little thicker than #2 but they work well. Thanks again for your videos.
I have been using UV gel for a long time now but I was just curious because at one time you said hard as hull cement was better then Sally Hansen's. I use loon water based cement and really like it. I use Sally Hansen's clear to put over my UV. It basically fixes the tackyness of the UV. By the way it looks like you have lost some weight... hope youbare OK. Guntersville crappie are wife open now. Water temos getting down into the mid to low 70's. Waiting on that 52 degree water temp for the bigger fish. Glad you are back....missed watching your videos. Take care and thanks for all of the content.
Ya I am not diabetic but got on a low carb diet and lost a bunch of weight. I found that sugar also effect I flamation and when I cut my sugars out my stenosis in my back improved and my RA improved big time. It's tough eliminating carbs. What was the hardest for me was potatoes, pasta and breads. Took about a month to stop craving those things. I know one thing I have tons of energy now and sleep better.

There is no wrong way to tie jigs as long as you keep your stuff tight this is a true artist at work he has been my favorite tyer to watch and I have been tying 11 years myself.
Forgot to add that Dollor Tree bundles are only $1.25. Problem is they only have about 3 colors.
Glad to see you back 😊
Next time you use your UV box to cure your jigs can you show it , or give information on where to get it. Thank You!
I’ve gotten a lot of request for that. It will be next video
@@ericmasseyjigco Thank you
#4 sickle hook 💯 % correct !!
Can you do a video using hackle, I’ve been trying to tie with hackle but can’t get the result I want.
I’ll try
what is your opinion on using organic material like human or animal hair?
I’ve done it even beard hair once
Cicle hooks hands down I have never had one break
just starting to tie jigs thanks for your help where can i buy those bobbins
Got those off Amazon …. Get the loon bobbin
Eric, if you do just one more wrap with your chenille at the end ( over wrap) you end up with a fuller body and not as much thread showing at the neck…..Nice Rootbeer / white color scheme.
I tie mine like that on purpose
Eric, thank you for helping us who are just beginning to tie.
One question I have is what sally hensen do you use. There are several different types.
Thanks Gary
It’s the round bottle just says hardener
Michael's has better quality and prices.
Absolutely they do
Hey Eric, great tie! Just curious, what is your preferred method for fishing jigs like this? Under a slip bobber? Cast and retrieve? Appreciate your insight
Under a bobber or vertically jigging under 12’ rod
Can you possibly explain a good shad or minnow pattern jig?
Gonna do one today
Great video! Can you tell us about your vise. Looks very sturdy
Peak rotary
What size thread are you using?
210

THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR VIDEOS. WHAT WAS THE NAME OF THE SUPPLIER WHERE YOU PURCHASED YOUR SUPPLIES? MISSED IT WHEN YOU SAID. THANKS GEORGE
Jig heads were from limits tackle
Material from Plateau Fly Shop
THANKS SO MUCH PLEASE KEEP THEM COMING.
Luv ur jigs I’ve been tying for bout 12 years but I’m finally to a point where I can possibly sell some. I just need help on packaging, any thoughts?
I get small bag froM Amazon and make my labels on my printer….. be careful selling can turn a fun hobby into a lot of work
@@ericmasseyjigco Never a truer statement. It can make you go from loving siting at the tying table to dreading it.
Hey Eric which uv resin did you say you really like? You said it dries quicker than some . Thanks
Alumi uv
So what do you think is the best thread for tying flat waxed or no waxed?
I use both
Awesome thank you.
My jigs spin like crazy, any tips?
what vise are you using
Peak
where is a good place to order jig heads at? enjoyed your video and trying to learn to tie my own.
I’ve got 2 guys I use
facebook.com/jasonstackle.jasonbrummell
facebook.com/LimitsTackle
Both are awesome at what they do
All my powder paint comes from 1st guy also
Eric....just curious....why did you stop using hard as hull head cement?
Sally Hanson is cheaper and works the same try using Uv resin
I have been using UV gel for a long time now but I was just curious because at one time you said hard as hull cement was better then Sally Hansen's. I use loon water based cement and really like it. I use Sally Hansen's clear to put over my UV. It basically fixes the tackyness of the UV. By the way it looks like you have lost some weight... hope youbare OK.

Also the hard as hill would get so tacky it was hard to use yea I lost some weight trying to kick diabetes in the ass
