Thread: Hand-ties that have worked well this year

These jigs have worked well at Carl Blackwell, Hefner, two Illinois lakes, and two Missouri lakes. If you tie your own, you might try these patterns.

Thanks, catman. I did that in 1/4 oz. to throw from the bank at Hefner, when they were really deep. The sandies and walleye like it too. The little jig at the bottom left is a peacock herl body and pheasant tail. It has been my best jig at Hefner for maybe twenty years. It killed them at Carl Blackwell late last winter. I have been mostly experimenting this year, and haven't used it since November.
