Default A few homemade jigs

I decided to try my hand at making some jigs after making my own shakey heads for awhile now. They're 1/4, 3/8, and 1/2 ounce heads poured on 4/0 and 5/0 Mustad megabite wide gap hooks with Do-it skirts. I tried wire wrapping the skirts so they'll last longer. Not the prettiest job but I can say for sure they do catch fish! First one is Texas craw.

and my first try at a chatterbait in dirty herring. Got a 5 pounder on it my first time using it so I know it works!

It's been a lot of fun and a lot more work building these than I thought it would but catching fish on your own bait is a pretty good feeling!
