Thanks for the kind words. As for the time being I do not have any plans to sell bucktails in the near future. They are just a hobby for the time being.
Thanks for the kind words. I am working on getting some made in heavier sizes for vertical jigging.
The sizes and prices for now
1.5oz = $4.50
2.1oz = $5.50
2.7oz = $6.50
These prices are for TINS with NO tube or hook, just the stainless steel swivel as shown in the picture. Almost every local tackle shop carries open eye tubes. You choose whatever brand hook, style, size, color tube, bucktail, ect that you want (cost hook + tube is usually about .25-.50).
Remember, TIN is about 12x the cost of lead.
It's also 30% lighter which means the same size TIN will not cast as far as its lead counterpart. However, when the sand eels show up you can drag these tins through the sand and over the bars and they will only keep getting shinier and shinier. Try that with chrome plated lead ones and you will quickly loose the finish.
Thought I would again mention some of the tins that JB was making....I had some hanging in my garage.....one of these nights I might actually fish them....
That's just a rumor. What I heard....was that stinky fisherman is still fishing from his armchair.
Nice bucktails JB.
Folks, if you never got your hands on a JB bucktail, I would encourage you to hit him up and get your hands on a few. Rumor has it that they will be in limited production and he's quitting the business at the end of the year.
^ This is just a rumor.....
but I heard JB found a nice, sweet Portuguese girl....is now going to church every week.....
and by the end of the year, he will sell his boat.....settle down...ask her to marry him....
And they will live happily ever after........
....making many little bambinos.....so he can take them surf fishing and crabbing with him.....
Of course...this is just unconfirmed at this point.......
"Alleged" intel........
from my armchair......

Good idea for the disclaimer. Sometimes without that its hard to tell if you guys are joking or not. JBarbosa got a boat? I thought he was a kayak guy? Getting married too? If so congratulations. Marriage doesn't take away from fishing that much. Just have to make sure you get the honey do list done and then you can fish.
What business? When you don't charge people for product its more of an expensive hobby! lol
You need to come on the boat and do some bucktailing for fluke! And trolling bucktails from the kayak produced bigger bass than plugs this spring for me.

See disclaimer...!
Boat, Kayak, Surf - they all have their time and place!
jbarbosa getting married congrats and good luck! some helpful hints don't be late to the wedding because you were out fishing! and don't get your wife any vacuums or household stuff for your anniversary you will be in the doghouse! Don't ask me how I know that.
No, I am not getting married!!!!!!
See Dark's disclaimer:

This just goes to show ya.....
A. Most guys don't read thoroughly..
B Or....some of us just love bustin yer balls that much..
So.....this new girlfriend of yours........Do you have any pics to share?
Is she hot? Does she pass approval of your parents?
How does she feel about you fishing all the time?.....
Sorry...Pal.....had to jump in with the others here....couldn't help myself......
Sorry JB, miss read that, didn't think the disclaimer was for that.
Any way I should have known better, with Dark not fishing as much he cannot "embellish" on his fishing ventures enough, so I guess its carrying over to other stuff.
Right Dark?
