Resin heads???

[eddystone]

Hi all,

Not sure if you guys use resin heads or similar in the states?

They are like a normal jighead but instead of the lead they have a clear almost weightless head.

I'm wanting to make some at home. Does anyone have any suggestions in relation to materials?

They don't have to be clear.

Here is what you need. The resin will take a special releasing agent as well. Hope this helps.

It's like an epoxy plastic. Some people are putting them on jig heads instead of lead for use as a dropshot jig.
