Jackson Brozard, a senior at Rugby High School in North Dakota, describes his FFA SAE project of handcrafting fishing jigs that he sells to local fishermen. He explains the jig-making process, including melting lead, using molds, and selecting paint colors based on water clarity to help fish locate the lures. Through careful record-keeping and bulk purchasing, he has learned the importance of patience and quality craftsmanship while maintaining profitability in his small business venture.
