    Got my very first order of H2O jigs yesterday from Mr.Koonce.I got 30 jigs in this order,3 different colors in 2 sizes.Really like the fact that the size is on the jig,makes it very easy to actually see what size you have on or need.

    When fishing plastics ,there is none better than H2O jigs Ryan,I’ve been using them for a couple years now and would’nt use anything else.

    Thats a great idea…its not always easy to judge the size, especially in low light. They are probably the best jig for plastics out there.
    I’m waiting until after Xmas to hit Dave with a big order. I see Steve Dzurik does well on unpainted ones…I’m pretty tradtionally color orientated but I’m going to get some for the “snaggy” areas.

    These jigs are dynamite for fishing bigger plastics. I am not color oriented when casting jigs shallow so the plain heads are what fill most of my jig box. Those fish are shallow for one reason………to eat! I have better luck on colored jigs when fishing deeper sometimes. I always start with the plain heads and try to re-fine it from there.

    This time of year, with the clear water, I’ll mainly stick with white or black for head colors. Those 2 colors are my confidence colors and work best for me. I will only try something else if I am not getting bit.

    Makes sense to me Dustin. I would think where Walleyes are concerned…Presentation,size,shape and motion of the plastic would be more of a trigger than the color of the jig head.
    Thanks Bud! You’re saving me $$$! I like that a lot!

    I know it doesn’t apply to this time of year but when the crawler bite is on the H2O jig is the best. The little keeper holds the crawler on without mangling it. Works great when fishing half a crawler too.

    Ryan, your gonna love those H2O’s. The fact that there are in-between sizes compared to most jigs is great. I’m often in situations where a 1/8 isn’t quite heavy enough and a 1/4 is too heavy. The 3/16 is just the ticket. Same with the 5/16, and I love that 3/32. The bait keeper is by far the best I’ve ever used. No more what I call, “pullin’ the pants down” on my plastics. The shape also allows the best fall rate of any any jig I have ever used. Not too fast(round head) and not too slow ( swimmin’ style). Your also gonna find that the paint job is probably the most durable that you can get anywhere. I haven’t used another type of jig head since. I might as well just get rid of all the others I’ve got and make some more room in my jig boxes for more H2O’s. I’m going to have to order some unpainted ones for the the “snaggy” situations. I’m assuming they’ll be a little less. Gotta call Mike.

    Thanks you guys! We love it when customers are happy with our products. We work hard to put out the best we can and when guys come back with good reviews like this it makes this business TWICE as much fun!

    Just so everyone knows, we have some new contact info. I bought B FISH N Tackle Co. from Mike Little early this fall and the warehouse is now located in Prairie du Chien, WI. Our e-mail address is: [email protected] and phone is now: 608-412-0170

    If you didn’t know the company moved I consider that a GOOD thing! Most companies go through some growing pains after a move like this but through some hard work and help from friends hopefully people will have nothing but great things to say about our customer service since the switch.

    If anyone has any questions, just let me know. Oh yeah, EVERYTHING, and I mean EVERYTHING we sell at http://www.bfishntackle.com is on sale 10% off for the month of December!

    Happy holidays,

    Dave Koonce

    IDA crew,
    Thanks for all the feedback on these jigs.I’m kinda a tackle freak so I’ve tried about every jig out there.Some good/others bad.I finally decided to give the H20 jigs a try and they look cool.Mr.Koonce had my order at my door very quick-thanks Dave.I look forward to the spring as it’s hard to beat a jig/minnow combo early in the year.

    Wow Dave, didn’t know. Congratulations. Just recieved a back order from Mike a few weeks ago with his bus card in it. I haven’t been able to access the website very well lately, due to computer problems. Got a new one early from Santa, so I’ll be able to keep up better. I’m sure you’ll do an excellent job with BFN just as Mike did. I’ve gotta take inventory on my Precision Jig boxes and get an order in. Holy Cow, Dave, now with the addition of the unpainted jigs, I’m going to have to get ANOTHER jig box!

    yes, thanks for making a great jig available to everyone. i have used them for maybe 2years now. i also like to buy the unpainted ones. i just like sometimes painting my own when time allows, they don’t catch anymore fish but maybe the satisfaction of alittle personal touch.
