Anybody know where they sell the thingamabob's jig?

slipperybob · « **Reply #1 on:** Feb 08, 2010, 07:56 PM »

I know a thingamajig by Hildebrandt.

That's it slippery bob. Thanks. Maybe now I can get a hit on a search engine. Do you by anychance know of any sites that sell em.

slipperybob · « **Reply #3 on:** Feb 08, 2010, 08:24 PM »

I believe they quit making them. Once in a while I find one or two in some clearance bins.

DON-E-ICE · « **Reply #4 on:** Feb 08, 2010, 08:28 PM »

Okay thanks. That's probably why I can't find em. Lol

I found them online made by yakima, but the ones they are showing doesnt have the chain on them like the ones that I have. I will keep looking. Thanks

I found them online, but it appears that they no longer have the chain??

Is a thingamabob like a Hali jig?

slipperybob · « **Reply #10 on:** Feb 11, 2010, 08:03 PM »

Thingamajig

fish4kitty · « **Reply #11 on:** Feb 14, 2010, 07:13 PM »

Thanks slipperybob. Not even close to what I was thinking. Looks more like a forage minnow.

slipperybob · « **Reply #12 on:** Feb 14, 2010, 10:01 PM »

It's just a short heavy minnow head jig weight with a hook on a split ring. It's detailed on both sides making it symetrical. It drops strait down with authority.

dick's sporting goods had them here in ny... that is until i bought them all

DON-E-ICE · « **Reply #14 on:** Feb 15, 2010, 07:28 PM »

Did they have the chain?

Townie · « **Reply #15 on:** Feb 16, 2010, 01:12 PM »

Don't need the chain-- treble worked best for me. Great lure for drifting open water too

DON-E-ICE · « **Reply #16 on:** Feb 16, 2010, 03:27 PM »

love the chain. Works like a hali s.

chartreuse · « **Reply #17 on:** Feb 21, 2010, 11:13 PM »

the ones at dick's had the chain, along with a few sturdier replacement single hooks - very good deal imo

slipperybob · « **Reply #18 on:** Feb 28, 2010, 04:01 PM »

I went and found some Thingambob's at Dicks Sporting Good also. It has the chain and a flicker tail on it.

slipperybob · « **Reply #19 on:** Sep 06, 2010, 05:14 PM »

Modified Thingamajigs...

oyler · « **Reply #20 on:** Sep 07, 2010, 10:09 AM »

If your dead set on having a chain, you can buy extra chains from hali, and put them on any jig. I like to use them on buckshots.

Thingamabob modified.

Did you mean to modify it backwards? And if so, why?

Thanks ~ Jeff

slipperybob · « **Reply #23 on:** Sep 28, 2010, 07:46 PM »

Thingamabob has the head looking down. Thinamajig has the head looking up.

All I did was add a hook with double flippers to my modified Thingamabob.
