Thread: Chartreuse submission for #11

Amazing !!!! Very nice work...........

Thnx jiggy, pup, JJ, Redear, mikeb, Jubs (left you a PM on BGT), TxRebel, and sloedown for the compliments – glad you enjoyed the pic.

sticksteer – the spinner blades are a 00, been using nickel and black nickel. Jump rings (butt rings) I think are a size 0. Got the idea from JSC and Cadman.

CK3 – thnx for the compliment – really believe in proportions.

Ifish –“Crappie Jig Hall of Fame” 2 funny (thnx). Still working on blade style – like them all but the Colorado seems to pull a little better. Caught more BGs with the Colorado (different color jig). Need to get back to the “Phlatapus”.

Nice looking jigs. So the swivel is actually just tied in I had to re-read to make sure I wasn't losing it (believe me lately it wouldn't be hard).

Have you used them enough yet to determine how the thread is going to hold up with fish hitting them???

FM - The swivel is tied on, the body built up with 3/0 flat wax, then clear coated.

Can't really judge how they "hold up" been losing them waaay too fast. Fishing some ugly - deep - structure with 2lb test.

They should be clearcoated with epoxy - too lazy - FP works fine.

Thnx to AgriHawg for the inspiration.

Awesome looking jig, I have been looking for a way to attach a spinner to the hook. That is a great idea.

Led,awesome jig.Have you ever tried Indiana blades on these? I use them on my r--d r-nn-rs and really like them. Way to nice a jig for me to use and lose. I better try to make my own.

LedHed, very clever idea. I would have never thought of that. Excellent food for thought, now you got my wheels spinning. BTW that is a really nice looking jig.
