I am looking for what we used to call jiffy rigs.<br />They were a stiff wire preformed loop that had a coil above and below this loop for twisting the main line to and could be placed anywhere on the main line.<br />The loop was used for attaching hooks, lures, etc. <br />Can't find these anywhere now. If you know of where these can be had or the manufacturer I would appreciate that info.<br />Thanks

Re: jiffy rigs

They were called "Chick's Jiffy Rigs" with an address of 1940 E. Mayamensing Avenue Phila. 48, PA. I also have HO5-3191 and HO2-9151 on the packaging but not sure what that is. Just opened one still in the original packaaging my grandfather gave me as a kid 40 years ago.
