Hi team.
Am after some advice on replacing assist hooks on jigs, both on the knots to use and the best products to use.
Am wanting to do the hooks on both bottom ship/jitterbugs styles and bigger benthos style jigs.
And if anyone knows where I can get a pr bobbin from. Marine deals are sold out and can't find anywhere else that sells them on the web or in store, especially in Christchurch anyway.
Cheers Andrew

Get your bottomship assists from kaveman on here. best around. or make your own with owner 1/0 livebait hooks and jigstar s cord
for jig assists, the owner sj 41s in 11/0 and 13/0 seem popular depending on size of the jig. again with jigstar h cord or ygk zylon if couta are common

I am trying to find a older post  which used a sleeve over the Kevlar and Octopus skirts that was very good post as well but cant seem to locate it.
