Thread: My 1st Tie

I ain't gonna lie, I felt like I was just learning to ride a bike some 50 years ago. Watched over a hundred videos and thought I had every technique and every oopsie anticipated.. People say it ain't rocket science ..and I agree but like anything else until you jump on the back of the horse you really don't know jack. My official 1st and now that retirement has crept in along with VA disability, I am venturing into my passion of crappie fishing and needing to excise my commercial hand tied buying demons...cuz 2.50-3.00$ for 1 jig is not gonna cut it. Any advice for a newbie? I see alot of great folks in here with envious skills. I have armed myself thus far with intermediate tools and an assortment of kip, arctic fox, strung neck, crystal flash, flashabou, 1/8 rabbit zonkers, bucktail, squirrel tail. and extra select craft fur, regular and holograghic cactus chenille..also using danville 210 waxed. Any advice much appreciated!
