tunsten jigs
« on: Jan 11, 2010, 07:09 PM »
I just heard today that the fiskas company is now japan, has anyone else heard anything. I beleive it may be true as the your bobbers down website no longer connects. Anyhow I love the 3mm wolfgram tungsten jigs. Does anyone have another website for different tungsten jigs/teardrops

Thanks, Tom

I don't know about that I just ordered some fiskas on thursday night and received them today from your bobbers down. By far my favorite jigs.  Fish twice as fast as other jigs

I ordered twice this year from Your Bobbers Down and received my orders in a couple of days. My dealings with them have always been good.

Just got an order today from YourBobbersDown.  Packages still say Made in Sweden, packaged in USA.

I bought quite a few Tungsten jigs directly from Kodiak but never saw them anywhere else. Fish307 has some Kodiak dropper spoons but thats all I saw on their site.

JR's tackle has some Tungsten jigs out. http://www.thornebros.com/winter/tackle/panfish/panfish_jrstackle.html

I've got a couple orders from YBD this season. The whole moving to Japan thing sounds like BS to me.

Tommy-n I too saw your source  ;) and was wondering how they got so much for these jigs when the craftsmanship seem to be kinda lousy.

They fish good and heavy but when I got them I had to clean all the eyes of epoxy and most of the hooks were bent causing the jug to swim circles. Just place another YourBobbersDown order today for some more Little Atom stuff. I think its a Fiska propblem (if its true) not a supplier problem.
