bemidjibasser Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 My dad used a couple of 1x2's that he had bolts through with wing nuts that he tightened down to secure the hooks between the boards. he was using the spray cans when he devised this system. It worked very well. If you are dipping it might not work real well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TonkaBass Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 I took a peice of 1" angle iron and cut it in half and hold the two sections together with spring clamps. This way when the jigs cure in the oven, they don't drip off the head, but down the shank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZnakMuskieAttack Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 I used to paint spinner baits for a local company, and the racks we used, I found were very convienient.Take a 2x4 and rip it in half so you have 2x2's.Take a circular saw and cut slots in the 2x2's about 3 inches apart.Next take window blinds, and cut them into 2 inch sections and place them in the slots on the 2x2's.The curve in the blinds hold the hooks of the lures snuggly, allowing for easy painting, trasport, and storage.
