"I’m really impressed with JJ’s Jigs! I caught so many fish with your jigs.  Don’t think I won’t tell others." -- Roger Collinski

 Hi JJ’s!!
Just wanted you to know that I fished a tournament on Lake Wallenpaupack Saturday [June. 2009]. I was able to upgrade our fish and came in 2nd place. I used your 5/16th Black Booger Jig.  I caught two over the slot fish before the bite shut down. I will be placing more orders for your jigs in the future, especially the Black and Olive Booger in 5/16. Now all you need to do is to tell me what works best at Beltzville Lake. --Thanks, G. Kelley

Mr. Kelly, thanks for the kind words. For Beltzville Lake try the 3/16 oz. White "Electric" Jig or the Baby Bass Brown.  Also try the Purple Iris in 1/4 oz. - Dave

"The jigs are great in appearance.  Your jigs seem like a quality product." - Brett Sarnoski


Received my order today. Wow! I can’t believe I actually used to tie my own flies and buy my own flyfishing leaders.  Your workmanship on the flies are wonderful. Your fly leaders are so much better than what I can buy at my flyshop.  I will definitely pass your business info on to my fly fishing friends. -- Mike Carpenter

Hi, Received the order yesterday, as usual the flies are great... They are really tied very well. Took them to work to show my fly-buddies. They were amazed at the detail and how fast they arrived. I gave out all the cards you sent, and they started looking at your website immediately.  I am very satisfied, the competitors don’t stand a chance. I have sent your site to about 8 fellow fly-fisherman, other than at work. I made up my mind and will buy strictly from "JJ’s Jigs" from now on.  Thanks again! Tight lines. -- Gregory Kantor

Dear Dave at JJ’s Jigs,

I purchased some hair jigs from you, and would like to say they are awesome! I cannot believe how well they work on the smallmouth I fish for in Western NY.  I have tried a lot of different jigs, and none work as well as the ones you make. Since using the jigs, my partner and I have consistently placed higher in the Lake Erie tournaments we fish, and it has become my go-to bait. The quality of fish I catch is considerably better, I have out fished my partner 10 to 1 out of the back of his boat using one of your hair jigs when he was using a different brand. I am also pleased how quickly I received your product, from the time I placed the order to the time I received them was amazing! So I would like to say thank you for making a quality product at an affordable price! - Gary Smith/Panama, NY

I have been using Dave’s [JJ’s Jigs]  jigs for 6 months now...3 things come to mind immediately...Quality, Craftsmanship, and Customer Service. They hold up very well to the abuse of fishing in timber or around structure and the colored heads are virtually chip proof. Dave uses only the highest quality material in putting together his jigs and takes pride in his work (unlike many of the mass produced jigs you see on the market today). As for customer service....second to none! Dave will go out of his way to build the jig that you want...colors, materials, sizes, you name it... and at very reasonable and competitive prices. - Thomas Underwood, Hazelton, PA


 

I am an avid fisherman of lakes, ponds, streams and the wonderful Susquahanna River.  Until recently, I thought I had everything I needed to get the tug going.  Jigs, Lures, Fly’s etc.  Mostly store bought, a few homemade.  It wasn’t until I started to use JJ’s Jigs that I really had some success.  In particular for me are the Walleye Zonker, Black Booger, Baby Bass Booger, Sculpin and Daredevil Zonkers and the Deep Diving Frog Jig.  The Walleye Zonker was given to me by the owner for a trial run.  I went out to a hole I knew that had a fair amount of Walleye running through and gave my arsenal a try.  I got a few taps here and there, and even caught one on a lure.  Then I switched to the Walleye Zonker and I landed four Walleye in an hour.  It was like I dropped fish candy down there and it was Halloween. Next I tried the Baby Bass Booger.  I was in an area where a top water lure was getting some action, but I wanted to try this jig out so I tied it on and threw it out there.  My first cast brought me a nice smallmouth bass.  The same for the next few casts as well.  I caught about 20 bass in an hour on this jig. The Deep Diving Frog was given to me by the owner during initial testing to try out and make suggestions.  This thing looks nasty, but drop it in the water and test it.  I ran it through a pool to see the best presentation for it before I tossed it into muddy waters at a local lake.  What a beauty.  It looks like a frog taking a nice dive.  I have caught many different species of fish on this jig alone.  It is perhaps one of my sentimental favorites. Last year I took up Fly Fishing.  I learned how to tie flies and how to check the environment to see which flies should work.  I am no master at tying flies, but JJ’s Jigs are for sure.  No nasty flies from some sweatshop overseas.  These are all hand made with care, and are at an excellent price as well.  The Minnow & Crayfish flies all are so beautiful you almost don’t want to throw them in the water, but thats when they really shine. I have purchased every jig and fly from JJ’s Jigs in the past 6 months and have had better fishing because of it.  Now I sport a JJ’s Jigs Angler patch on my fishing vest out of pride for these products. Give them a try, you will NOT be disappointed.  ------ Seth "gotthenet" Hazen, Waverly, New York 


Over the summer, I was fly fishing on the St.Lawrence river using various types of baitfish fly patterns. The fishing action was slow, I decided to mix things up a little bit, and tied on a JJ’s jigs crayfish pattern to my leader. The action was on once that change occured. On every other cast I had a smallie on the end of my line. Numerous hits and landings. That fly holds a designated spot in my bass fly box and always will be a part of my go to arsenal. Anyone that has one of these flies has a huge advantage. Great variation in color schemes and nice action in the fly. --- Matt "mattflyguy" Collins, Elmira, NY
