Just ordered some up.
99 cent 5 mm tungsten jigs? With $2 shipping?
Worth a try!

The lake I fish I use the right angle tungsten jigs in white/pink, white/orange, white/red or just plain white and this year I filled my freezer with perch.  The jigs you show are not truly a right angle jig but you could bent the eye-let slightly.  I mainly find perch in mid depth 25-35 FOW and don't have to worry about weight for deep water 50' or more.  Size of hook is your preference, I like 12.  I always buy 2 of every jig, in case they work and I lose one.  Buy Buy

Buy 30 jigs get free shipping and a free jig box?  For that price, why not? I'll definitely try it. Might have to move this over to best ice deals 😎😀

I bought 9 jigs yesterday and now plan on buying 30 more.

This is the response I got from the company, when I asked about reviews. Based soley on the response of his review is why I'm purchasing more. Seems legit.

Good morning John! I shipped your order this morning. I do not have any reviews online yet but adding this option soon. I have a 100% rating on a few reviews on eBay. Been testing for a year but only opened for Mass business a month ago. So far sold over 2000 jigs and growing. I also give a 30 day money back guarantee. To be quite honest all tungsten jigs typically come from the same Factory I'm going direct instead of from a trade company. This is why I can offer the lower prices. You will often see my jigs the same as your other major manufacturers such as Larson, clam, resilute. Northland etc. Not really what you're looking for but I hope that helps. Thank you again for your purchase hopefully we can do some business again

so on their glow jigs, for those who have them now, the eyes must be the only area that glows? they don't have/use a glow body paint?

how's the wire on the hooks compared to major brands? are they sticky sharp or need sharpening?
Title: Re: Energised outdoors Jigs?
Post by: Philip on Mar 13, 2018, 10:23 AM
I ordered jigs and a small box for $20, excited to see how they turn out.

Nice jigs but I really like the 6 mm size. There are a few but not the ones I want.
Title: Re: Energised outdoors Jigs?
Post by: DR.SPECKLER on Mar 13, 2018, 12:35 PM
real nice deal at 99 cents, but I use 3mm jigs maybe 4mm in deep water.5mm is to big for my fishing needs.
Title: Re: Energised outdoors Jigs?
Post by: reelrusty on Mar 13, 2018, 01:00 PM
 :-\ Hmmm.....Well, I bit! Ordered enough to get free shipping but surprisingly shipping was pretty reasonable even without that perk. Plan on usin many of these light lining Walleyes with small leeches this spring. Sure hope the hooks are good. The last bargain tung jigs I bought some of the hooks were absolute garbage! :-\ :tipup: :tipup: :tipup: :tipup:

Post by: lingcod on Mar 13, 2018, 01:28 PM
Thanks for the heads up! I ordered a bunch of unpainted jigs and a 15 pc. kit w/case. Just over $25. = free shipping.

Post by: MTIceHunter on Mar 13, 2018, 02:09 PM
Couldn't resist the $.99 price tag for the .5mm jigs. Ordered 30 to get the box thrown in and free shipping. 30 tungsten jigs for under $30, hard to beat that!

Post by: shiveringjoe on Mar 13, 2018, 03:38 PM
Has anyone received theirs yet? I’m just waiting for a quality report and then I’ll order some of the heavies. The last thing I need is more tungsten teardrops... but I don’t have as many in the 6-8mm sizes.

Get the unpainted, too much emphasis on color of jig, pink eye on a yellow jig, ect. Might be one day in the year it matters, me I just change colors with my plastics, very easy!! Havnt used a painted jig in years !!

Hey guys! I had to get on this site and check out why so many of you were blowing up my sales the past two days! Thank you so much for your support and hope I can answer many of your questions.

I like many of you enjoy the outdoors but one of the most frustrating things for me is to see the crazy markups on items that we all enjoy. I have been importing for years and am a Purchasing Manager for a major tech company. I travel, meet with vendors across the world and this past year decided to share my knowledge to offer the same products the big brand companies offer for a lower price. All my products have been fully tested and I have yet to have a negative review. With all of our testing we did have one faulty eye, which is bound to happen with any brand. Other than that, the hooks are sharp and these will catch fish. I launched a month ago to get my name out there and get a better feeling to what you are looking for.

I am selling off my remaining inventory and going to have an aggressive lineup for the 2018-19 ice season. I am taking all of your feedback serious so please contact me on the website if you have feedback or have questions. Thank you to all of you who have already. Keep those rods bent folks!

I will source any size unpainted jig you are looking for. I have sourced many with different hooks sizes based on your preference.


Title: Re: Energised outdoors Jigs?
Post by: energizedoutdoors on Mar 14, 2018, 09:52 PM
One more thing, many of the 5mm products have been restocked since last night. I allowed plenty of safety stock and now it is all ready to go. Thank you!
Title: Re: Energised outdoors Jigs?
Post by: lefty2053 on Mar 15, 2018, 05:54 AM
Glad you found the site that everyone enjoy's. I looked over your stock and liked several jigs but I do like the 6 mm Size better and really didn't see any I would use. Maybe next season you will get a larger selection of those in. Perch patterns and White with red or green in them.
Title: Re: Energised outdoors Jigs?
Post by: hays47 on Mar 15, 2018, 07:26 AM
Yep got me. Two painted 12 pk kits and 40 unpainted in two different sizes. Total of 64 jigs and two boxes for just under 62.00.

Check out the lithium batteries there too.  12 Volt 10 AH batteries for 79.00. A 5 pk for 350.00. If the free shipping applies to these as well. That deal there is unbeatable.

Very cool that you checked the thread out. Youre going to move a lot of Jigs during your $0.99 sales. A lot of people will use them as a chance to restock their jig boxes. If possible, I would try to do a Pre- Mid- Post- season sale (Something like Black Friday, New Years, Spring Sale)

Are you buying unpainted and painting yourself? Or are they coming from the factory finished? If so, did you send an RFQ for every colorway?   ;)

Thanks for checking out shanty. If you continue to offer quality products at great prices you will have a lot of success among the members here (and probably everywhere in general). You will also get lots of honest feedback from us to help guide your business. Most of us try to support good businesses that take care of us and we are typically very loyal as well! Good luck and keep up the good work!

Thanks guys! I source direct both painted and unpainted. I do paint (powder) the solid color glow jigs. Trying to really get the BEST glow on the market and yes, keep the price low. 99 cents will likely be a multiple time a year sale. Thank you so much for your feedback.

This past month was a big test. Now after feedback I will make changes and my 2018 lineup should be lights out. Going to ad more soon. The LiFePO4 batteries are going to fly. I am pretty excited about this. My first batch is on the way and second to follow. Hopefully can partner with a couple others to market at shows this fall.

Thanks again for all the feedback and support.

Post by: reelrusty on Mar 18, 2018, 12:31 PM
 ;D Hey there energized! Good job! Got my order yesterday and am generally pleased. (I'm a Virgo so that says a lot.) Hooks are good. Would like to see red hooks but this may be a personal preference. Paint coverage and pattern is consistent jig to jig. Clean eyes would be a plus but there were no completely obstructed ones in the sixteen I received. Y'all need to keep workin on the glow thing though. I know some colors just glow better than others. I've already put away most of my ice gear so didn't have my uv light to charge but using a halogen, the pink was best and the chub and sunrise were least with the green somewhere in the middle. I'm looking forward to using my heavies this spring and summer for leeches and smaller minnows fishing for Walleye and Smallies. Thanks for a great product at a reasonable price point! Oh, are ya a sponsor here on the Shanty yet? :clap: :tipup: :tipup: :tipup:
Title: Re: Energised outdoors Jigs?
Post by: energizedoutdoors on Mar 18, 2018, 12:40 PM
Not a sponsor yet. Much has taken place in the past month so time will tell. Getting more unpaited/painted jigs this next week. adding a 6mm as well. 9mm had sold out and I am back filling a few order for these but will have some left after.

I like the pink, yellow, orange glows. Red never seems to glow long but I do have a new red that paints pink and glows red. I may ad this soon.  I am testing a few new brands of glow which are supposed to glow longer. Many downsides is they paint white and glow different colors. I will keep adding over time.

Got my Jigs and they look and feel good. They seem consistent and the paint is pretty well done. The glow seems a little weak but we'll see how they work out. I'll will definitely be a returning customer
Title: Re: Energised outdoors Jigs?
Post by: 3300 on Mar 19, 2018, 09:12 AM
how are the hooks. the gap and wire size and sharpness (sticky sharp or mediocre sharp or need sharpening), if they are hardened?
what would you say the compare to in the major brands?

I haven't used mine yet, hooks do look good I wouldn't say as good as a fiskah or Brantners but they cost quite a bit more.
Paint finish looks real nice.

Post by: VTMatt on Mar 19, 2018, 04:22 PM
Hooks are good quality. All of mine are sticky sharp and pretty stout. I had some glitter gold jigs come in with chips and Matt from Energised emailed back in like 10 minutes and will be replacing them.  ;D

I got my order today, I think I placed the order on Friday so I'm impressed with the fast shipping. I had a couple with chips also and they returned my email in a few minutes and are sending some replacements. Top notch customer service if you ask me. I'll definitely purchase from them again!

Yes, I think I had a batch that did not cure well. Good thing I was doing small batches. For now on I am batch testing with a jig from each batch by dropping on concrete. I also found better way to package and ship through the process. I want the longest lasting powdered jigs and stand behind the quality. Working on the glow also! 2018 lineup should be lights out, no pun intended. Thanks for the kind words!
Title: Re: Energised outdoors Jigs?
Post by: baogongmeo on Mar 19, 2018, 09:55 PM
Energized, for my order the packaging was exemplary with the jigs being packed in the small jig box( which is exactly what I've been searching for) but the gold jigs were kind of disappointing... the finish seemed thin but other than that I was very pleased.  IMHO make sure that your jigs have good, strong and sharp hooks with clean eyes and maintain your pricing and shipping and you'll be golden... last year I lost my biggest large mouth bass at the lip of the hole when the shank of the hook broke off from one of your competitors gold jigs.

got mine and all paint is good. no chips or cracks. for the price, I would have just applied a thin coat of epoxy if there were chips or cracks. would like to see 5mm with a size 10 hook for crappie. fire tiger would be nice. did not see  the jig box offer when I ordered. DAMN!

I have to say the quality for this price, anyone would be foolish not to stock up. I received my order quickly and after seeing what they have to offer I will be getting more when the new lineup comes out. Bounced a few off the floor to see how good the paint job was and had no chipping, that’s hard to find at any price. Nice job with these bud. Keep them at this quality and you have a lifetime customer here.

just checked his site. only a few are greyed out. be patient. he is trying to restock. I tried about 3 weeks ago and every time I tried to check out, most of what I wanted, sold out between the time I made selections and got to check out. he restocked everything and I was able to get what I wanted.

What are you guys looking for in specific? Most of the solid colors are here to stay. The 3-5mm with design are pretty much going to be out for the season hence the 99 cent sale. I will be restocking  slowly but they will be my new colors and popular designs from this past season. I just added glitterbug red 3-9mm and glitterbug orange 3-9mm. The wonderbread series will be available within 30 days from 3-9mm. I am trying to focus on the 6-9mm right now which are poplular for open water and what I am finding out trout! Thanks again!
