You taught me about using a needle to thread the hackle. The jelly jigs are very slippery and I stuck myself a time or two. May have to use forceps or something to hold it while I work. If I can help, let me know.

I hope "G" catches a ton of Crappie on the Alabama state line. He will probably post photos that will blow your mind. The south has huge Crappie here. That is just how it is.
