2010 New Year's Shad Swap

[QUOTE=AtticaFish;980545]Baitmaster - Jigs came in today. Cool tie and love the eyes... they seem to jump out at ya and adds to the whole profile. :cool:
2 to go................

I hope to get out on the ice this coming weekend for some crappie or yellow perch, have right around 4"-5" most anywhere around me. Last weekend only had around 2" so I only got out on my own little pond. Did get my pole bent tho, 1 dinky gill and 1 big dumb bass, aka "Hopper." lol

Len, did you get out and give your new ice jigs a test?[/QUOTE

Attica......No did not get out this past weekend because I came down with a upper- respiratory infection but I will be good to go this weekend. Ice here from what I here depending on which lake you go to right now is about 4"-7"!!

Attica...thanks, This was the first time using the eyes. Trimming the tail end of the head back gave a nice slope to the profile of the head, but it was alot of work.

ICE FISHING????....Hard for a Southern California boy to understand.

ACJoe - Jigs made it here, one of my all-time favorite color patterns! :D

And then there was one.......

Well, I'm headed off to my photo studio (aka the bathroom :rolleyes:) and going to take me a whole lotta pics. Also have pics to take from the 3-way swap that I promised I would do and totally slipped my mind until I started making up my bucket for ice fishing. :o Sorry JJ & CK3. Need some pics of some of my new stuff as well.

Baitmaster - Anytime you wanna give the ice a try, just swing by Attica-OH about mid January or February and I can show you how its done..... The fishing part anyway, I still don't have the catching figured out on the ice all that well. lol

tween goose hunting and waiting for my favorite crappie hole to thaw pouring,painting,and tying jigs is all i have been about for the last two weeks since ho ho came round"i promised some squirrel feathers to some y'all ain't forgot yea's"I'll sit down sommers and get on it today 'er tomorah:D
hope to see these jigs soon

I got a feeling this swap is gonna be special with some totally awesome ties. Can't wait to see the pics and receive my new toys.

Well... still waiting on 1 more jig to come in but had some time at work today to get all the pics I have resized and I put them up on the back side of a website I run. If you want it to be a surprise, DO NOT CLICK HERE! ;) Shad Swap Pictures Click on the pics to see a bigger version, hopefully this will work ok for anyone with slow net connections.

Pictures don't do these justice since several of them have the shape of shad also. They all look good, congrats to all. :) Enjoy.
