the old firetiger pattern is kinda plain with longer curving bars, the new one is all jazzed up with jagged stripes and small blotches. I just dont like how much black they put on the new ones. when did you buy it? if it is in the past maybe 2 years, its probably the newer design.

Mine is older than 2 years, so I'll see if I can get Tech Support (mrs. c) to scan a pic for you.

sweet! I appreciate it. I bought a backup a couple years ago, and, now, I need another backup, they need to make these things out of kevlar, cause they dont hold up too well. thanks again.

Kevin, T those hooks and bend up a tad, and your jake wear troubles will be over for the most part. I have soem 10"ers that i nearly cut in half over the years, then my cousin turned me onto the t-ing awhile back. Didn't hurt hooking at all either.
