    Default Noob... what do you think?


    Hey guys, I'm new to the forum and the whole jig tying thing. I've recently got into tying and wanted to get some advice and opinions on my work. I have noticed that many of ya'lls jigs seem to hide the whip finish and final thread tie, what is the best way to do this? Please let me know what you think!

    Jigs look fine and like the colors! As for hiding the whip finish, just take the chenille as tight against the head as you can and the do the finish and when you synch it down it should hide itself.

    Look great, I don't worry about hiding thread, but I do pick a color that goes with the jig. You are off to a great start.
