I do like the tapered look. Personally I will cut it off just a smidgeon before the bend of the hook and have the marabou or hackle start there. I believe the crappie will get a little more metal in his/her mouth then. Also the marabou or hackle will have just a little more room to undulate, move and entice the crappie. I am thinking that color will be deadly with black bou or hackle with just a hint of flashabou in it. That chartreuse body with a few black flakes in it would also be a winner.
Knee is getting stronger. Soon I will be out on the water again. May have to find my a home on a reservoir or large pond because it has been just killing me being all cooped up and no water to look at. I can guarantee you all that fishing will be fun. Catching takes a little more work and those great ideas from Snake River.
