    Good looking jigs, you're well on the way. Learn how to use the tips of the material you choose and not trim them off. You get more action out of the tips and a more natural look. Just one step of many. Keep after it and piece by piece you'll be helping folks here before you know it. And welcome from Middle Tennessee.

    I think it looks neat. Also, you may try to run your flash a little farther our the back of the jig then the marabou is. I am not sure what size head that is, but I generally try to run flash and living rubber about 1/2 again as long as the tail feathers if that makes since.

    Thanks... Just figured I would try something different... The head size is the 1/16 I got from you... Not sure what living rubber is?

    Living rubber is basically the material that is used in a Bass Skirt bait, tied into a crappie jig like you would tie in flash.

    We all had to crawl before we could walk and walk before we could run. Just stick with it. You are doing great.
