Does anyone know where to get painted 3-4 oz jig heads online?

The biggest I can find is 2 oz. I feel like I can't keep a 2 oz head near the bottom.

Thanks!

buy the 4 0z from the seller that list them in 10-20 and 50 packs...he also sells 3...then buy the super white glow---powder coat in the 2 0z jar...it is like 10 bucks...I also order a pack off sheets of sticky jig bug eyes...like 7 $

then use a plumbers torch to heat the jig for a few seconds and flip it in the powder coat jar..hang the hook on a bech side...just as it cools...stick two eyes on...

I can do like ten jigs in 5 minutes


the final cost for a 4 oz jig glow/white/eyes ...if I buy the 50 pack deal...is like 1.50

ten pack is like 2.50 a jig...sell a few to buddies at cost so I dont sit on 50 jigs....

in the end it is the cheapest ,best way to have, 4 oz  glow white ,shad head ,size 8, swimbait jig heads that go down fast and stay in contact with the rod ...cheaper to buy it all then make em...plus the 4 oz jig heads bounce over ledges and cause you feel them ,you dont loose so much...win/win deal

at home yes..post it up tonight maybe with the gear all spread on the bench...the eyes and powder coat and bulk jigs rock..green glow powder coat is cool too, but is kind of clumpy when it dries

test--- see if these bulk seller links work---you still need to carefully select the size and quantity on each link--I have bought all these..they are really strong -razor sharp -and long lasting

the second jig link is only 2 oz max..but the hook is LONGERr than most jigs I have used...big swimbait..and the shank has great spikes that hold but do not split the big hammer

jigs
eyes
powder coat
high quality /cheaper swivels

I did not answer the real question-4oz painted ,pre- made jigs-
In my searches they are very hard to find- I found none online ,or in stores, and looked for a season

or only in bullet shape which -to me- snag in ledges and rocks--plus they were $$$

making them, kind of sucks the first time ,and is money out of pocket, to get it 'all' on the work bench ready to fire the torch and melt some paints......but from there it is like free jigs...and your friends will buy em to offset out of pocket even for cost it helps to buy bulk and shave it down further..1.50$  a jig for 4 oz shad is a deal

then use a plumbers torch to heat the jig for a few seconds and flip it in the powder coat jar..hang the hook on a bech side...just as it cools...stick two eyes on...

Do you cure them in the oven?
