I've been tying flies for trout for about 15 years now, but have never tried a jig yet for crappie. I looked in the section on tying jigs but most of the contributors/jig tiers were further north of Alabama. I've been primarily a BG jig fisherman but have been thinking about tying some jigs with a few of my old trout patterns (woolybugger, squirrel tail etc) to see if the crappie would take them a little faster with the action of the material on the jigs. Anybody have any luck here in North - Mid Alabama?
