    Default Three just alike


    It's one of those days, tired, and just decided to relax. 3 days of fishing and I'm wore down. It's no longer getting but got old.

    These are triangular heads labeled 1/8 but weigh in at .09 oz. Added some extra flash material and used faux Bucktail for the hair. Different colors and collar combinations, cause you know, no two alike for me.
    Three just alike

    Finished weight .10

    There were some issues with the third one due to my adding extra color collars on top of the base thread for some reason. Usually the back collar is formed with the base thread and then switching to the next color. Seems to work out easier the first way but with more practice the over the top method has some potential.

    But they worked out alright.

    Bottom pic is crappie eye view.

    Almost forgot, siesta time! You know, old.

    Those look good. Did you put a coating or UV over the thread? It looks really smooth on some of them. Very nice.

    The one with eyes has a UV glue top coat to help hold the eyes after super gluing as well as give the head a different effect.

    That eye really sets the top one off. All three look great.
