not even hooked!!!

not even hooked!!!

trying out a new homemade jig and i snagged up..

after a bit of jiggling it came free and i retrieved a bit of line and dropped back down. after a couple small flicks i hooked this small (but size) dhuie

went to go unhook it and saw the hook wasnt even in its gob but hanging out the front with a lump of coral on it..although, the jig was firmly jammed in its mouth and i had to cut it out..

unlucky day for the dhu i spose..

i got given the jig and i rigged it up out on the water without the assist style.. just a 100lb crane swivel to a split ring with the jig and a 6/0 mustard hanging off it.

u can buy molds off ebay for around 40 bucks
