misfish Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 (edited) You know the banana shaped jig. For some reason I can find their new style,but it,s not what I want. I cant even find it on thier site. It,s like 2 inches long and banana shaped. If anyone knows where to buy or of a mold out there,I would be thankful. B.

Nipfisher Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 Is it the rocker minnow? They stopped making them about 3 years ago. I bought out the last 10 or so from Zellers here in North Bay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom McCutcheon Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 I have some of those which I bought from Dennis at Bass Haven on Mitchells Bay a few years ago. My understanding was that he made them himself. I know he is still in business, but I am not sure if he still makes the Jig A Whopper. Good Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kickingfrog Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 This is what came to mind when I read JIGAWOPPER: The white one is a knock-off. The other three are genuine and no, you may not have them. They haven't been made for about ten years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

O.K. the rocker minnows I have are bent slightly but I didn't think that much. I'll have to check the "bent" one I have. I don't think it says jig-a-wopper on it.

Ice Fishing Ham Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 I was also looking for Jig-A-Woppers but have had no luck. The kind I'm looking for are in the photo below. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other three are genuine and no, you may not have them. They haven't been made for about ten years. Awesome spoon Rob, it's my favourite jigging spoon hands down. I still have a handful left, all well used. I was also looking for Jig-A-Woppers but have had no luck. The kind I'm looking for are in the photo below. That would be the Hawger spoon I believe. I have a bunch and still use them regularly and they catch fish too. Sorry I think you'll be fortunate to find a source for these spoons. Brian those banana shaped jigs are pretty common. I actually think I do have some made by jig a whopper and some other brands as well. Exactly what sizes do you want? I never use these anymore, whatever I've got you can have.

Thanks Mike Roughly about an inch and a half. Hands down,they are my favorite ice jig for walleye. Was going through the online cataloge and found a mold,but it dosent say what size they are,just the weight. Going to give them a call later today.

I have been looking for this spoon also. Tromblys has them in perch size but I want one in trout / whitie size. I had one years ago and got my first decent laker on it but it seemd to have walked away somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adempsey Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 (edited) I stumble across those Hawger spoons every so often at various tackle shops and even TSC. Never seen a good selection though. Came across these Jig-a-Whopper lures recently. They did not come with hooks.
