I have a bunch of vintage Hal-Fly lures. In fact, Harold Barber, the owner/maker of Hal-Fly Jigs was practically family to me, and I learned how to make his product. Check out my Fish Slayer Jig Facebook page, or my website Home Harold Barber (Uncle Hal as we called him) passed away last year at 93. Let me know if I can help you out!

Harold Barber (Uncle Hal) was practically family to ours. I learned his method, and even use some of his old equipment today to make those jigs.
You know, they aren’t hard to make. Just get some of the plastics from some the guys on here and feed the feather w oversized needle.
Do you make any with light wire hooks?
Some guys on here make the plastic and feather but not me
Yeah .... Snake River makes the "Jelly Jig" & Grousefly makes the "Chet Fly" .... both of which are similar to a Hal-fly. :twocentsQuote:

The method you describe is not the way Hal-Fly's are made at all. How would you keep everything from slipping off the hook or back through the plastic?
