Fine looking jigs. Looks like a few of them might bounce up a trout bite too. Are they for s.w./brackish stripes or inland landlocked mules?
Thanks for the comments! Where I fished back in MD, it was mostly brackish water. I fished creeks & rivers more than any place, tributaries of the Chesapeake Bay. I would occasionally get out in the bay, but my small boats really weren’t good for that bigger water. Only on the nicest days would I venture into the bay and even then I tried to go places away from the bigger boats.
Yep, some might work fine for trout too. Even though I had Striped Bass in mind when I tied them, I also try to make some that would serve double duty for other fish species. Never know what grab a bucktail or anything we tie to the end of our line for that matter.

I’ll go in on the molding cost if someone can convince the Zman to elasticize it. See, the greatness of the bait is it’s main problem. The tail gets ate quick by everything in the water. Need that elastic for durability. I kid you not, it’s the best dadgum trout bait since boiled peanuts. Any body got some? Let me know… Riverside Croaker Tail.
Check Ebay, and look up the phone number for Shelton Tackle in Alabama, they carry a lot of closeout stuff.
Barring that, you can make your own mold, buy the liquid plastic, and pour your own.
