    All I would say is double wrap the body on the bottom one, it looks like maybe a 1/8 oz head and #2 chenille and that needs double wrap on 1/8 and larger and if it has Crystal in it, then it's even smaller when wrapped.
    Have some 3/32 oz heads and not sure, but they may need double wrap n some chinelle.

    Other than that, they look just fine and even the small body on the bottom one will still catch fish!

    Good job!

    They'll do. The rubber takes a little to get used to it's characteristics. Try not tying quite so tight and see what you get. Tie it in tight on the forward end and slack up a little and it wont flare so much. Just options, those are nice ties.
    Creativity is just intelligence fooling around
