[#0000FF]Your map sucked. Mine are better. Neener neener.
I'm sure I can find it...thanks to Rocky.
I am just finishing up a big batch of my "Whitie Runners". I'll bring my boxes and you can "go direct". Shoot me a PM if there are any other special jigs you need. Although unless you use super strong Gamakatsu hooks there is no insurance against a lack of finesse in handling big fish. The thin wire Matzuo hooks I use will land big fish okay but do not hold up to ham-handed twisting with pliers, etc.

If you are referring to the paint coming off, that is common with commercially made jigs that are powder coated. I use several coats of vinyl and a top coat of epoxy on mine. Almost never become "unpainted" before you lose them in a fish or donate them to the fish gods.
With the downturn in weather conditions I doubt you will be doing much more hand-to-fin combat with your usual playmates...this year.
Oh yeah, we gotta take another shot at getting together for a tube and toon fest on Bear Lake this year. My stupid knee kept me home last year but I got no excuses (so far) this year.
