Barnegat Fishin’ Hole Custom Tackle
Saturday, January 30th, 2010We are pleased to announce the launch of our custom and hard to find tackle line. Currently we offer butterfly jigs, assist hooks and Kevlar assist cord.
I have always taken great pride in creating jigs and rigs myself that not only looked good but continually catch fish. I have been told numerous times that I should sell the tackle that I’ve been making for myself and friends. After a few years of hearing it over and over I have decided to offer some of my creations for sale here.
The butterfly jigs are all hand poured, individually dipped in powder paint and then baked at 3oo degrees for forty-five minutes to harden the finish. Butter fly jigs are offered in six colors and five sizes from 2 to 9 ounces.
Assist hooks start with heavy duty, 4x strong Gamakatsu live bait hooks which are then hand tied with Tuf-Line Kevlar assist cord in 200, 300, 500 or 700 pound test (depending on the size of the hook). We offer four sizes of hook in 5/0, 7/0, 9/0 and 11/0 with three leash lengths-short, medium and long.
We are also thrilled to announce that we are stocking Tuf-Line Kevlar Assist Cord. Available in 200, 300, 500 and 700 pound test we offer handy packs of 10 or 25 feet or 100 and 300 foot spools.
Keep checking back as we will be adding more products that we use every season like our custom shark rigs which will feature Lindgren-Pitman circle hooks, 2′ of 49 strand cable, premium ball bearing swivels and 530 pound Momoi Extra Hard wind-on leaders.
Spring is coming and so is more content
Friday, January 29th, 2010Many of you know I have been busy with taking over administration of Barnegat Fishin’ Hole from Larry. For those that don’t, it has been consuming much of my free time but well worth it.
The site continues to grow, members continue to contribute real information and many learn something or take something useful away almost every day. Thank you to everyone who has supported me in this transition and to the sponsors that have renewed for 2010.
We have also moved the hosting of my blog to a new server and will be moving Barnegat Fishin’ Hole to it as well. I am hoping that a much more reliable and faster server as well as the greater capacity of the new server will allow for more free time and not the constant routine of putting out fires.
Once the dust settles I will begin blogging again about the boat and my fishing efforts. In between I will try and update my past fishing adventures as best I can.
Thanks,
Joe
