What ever happened to the good old bulk lead-headed bare bass jigs and slapped with a pink skirt?

Fast, easy, deadly, and way cheap.

If you're buying pre-tied jigs, you're probably spending WAY too much.

Think bass. Think bulk.

If you're buying "pink gear" in a store that sells salmon gear, you're probably paying too much.

I think I got all of my "bass gear" at Angler's Choice up near Edmonds. A predominantly bass oriented tackle shop. They will have the leaded jig hooks in bulk and cheap. Probably has the pink skirts, too. All cheap. Oh yeah, black, purple, white bass skirts all worked well. I liked the the pink and purple ones myself.

PS. Don't forget to pinch those bards on those jigs! Not only will the hook penetrate the snout of the humpy better, but it's a heck of a lot easier to release the bazillion humpoids you're going to catch.
