whadya think? Cheap tungsten jigs?
« on: Dec 21, 2012, 06:40 PM »
 I went to a Meijers near my house. They had some 3 packs of Skandia Tungsten jigs that would not scan. I took one up to the u-serv and the girl said ," how about $4 . they sell for $6." I said , no thanks. The manager working the area got in the act went back to the fish area while I waited and could not find them. He came back and said that this store does not carry ice fishing gear so how about a dollar a pack.
 I walked back to the fishing area and found 6 packs . i bought all of them and a 25 pack of bobber stops for $7.07 with my m-perks coupon.
 These are size 14 with one firetiger, one gold/orange and one black/orange/ chart.
 Anyone need some jigs?

I picked up a 5mm Fiskas tungsten jig at Gander for $.07. It was clearly marked $.07  and i thought it was a mistake but it cashed out. Sham it was the only one at that price.

 I got in on those last spring too. They had the heavier skandia tapola's 3 pack for $2.50 and glow tiger #5 and 7 jigging raps for $1.99 at another store. I bought about all they had. Now i have too many.

Why are tungsten jigs all the rage anyways. The weight, or are the hooks stronger?
