Haha I really don't think with small jigs the head makes that much of a difference. However, on some larger jigs I've touched up a few with some nail polish and caught fish on them so I wouldn't be concerned about the smell so much, just let 'em air out a couple days and wash them well.Those lead heads are so small I doubt the fish even cares..
Are the eyes still there?
I tie a lot of my own jigs and the jig heads i use normally chip pretty fast but i have never noticed it effecting the fish much. I have caught just as many on chipped jigs as unchipped jigs. Now nightmare jigs (black tail red body white head) I do cover the head with a layer of head cement it seems to help keep them from chipping for a time because i think them having a white head is important. I will have to try tough as nails and see how that works.
Thanks man nice priceing when i need to restock i will get ahold of you need to get tieing for late winters and summers with some nightmare jigs.
