Reply With QuoteLooks good!
What's that you used for the tail?
I think I've got something like that was bought last year or so. Believe that they are called gummy worms or something.

Those look good and will surely catch them. Glad you were able to get some vice time in. Continue healing my friend.

Thank you Skip. I got the idea from watching a video on you tube called the crappie cajoler, put out by Arkansas Fishing Adventures. Where theirs is more of a jig/fly tied with Hourglass lead eyes,(i think), I used a regular jig. Should be pretty good. Thank you...

That's were I got my inspiration from as well. I have a green and pink one that I made several jigs from but only fished once due to the small size and I couldn't cast them. Using a split shot I should be able to revisit them and try again.

I fish the really light jigs like this with a weighted thill float. Smallest weighted float I can find. I also use 10lb braid that is 3lb dia. and use a clear leader of at least 5' long...4-6 lb test.
