Scott
to bad grub can't see this stuff will ahve to drop him a line i guess on the phone .
A jig with some hair,lot's of possibilities. I'm sure there's gonna be some great ties with this group.Let's have some fun. Lot's of time to tie a nice jig. Take it easy on me everyone.
i agree wait till the end let the suspense build up on what everyone has tied for the swap. Post a picture of all the jigs and then separate shots of the winning jigs. Just my thought about this might chase tiers away if you start posting pics as you receive them, for there are all levels of tiers signed up for this and looks like there may be well over 30 by the time sign up is closed. Some are really really really good :cool: at this so lets not scare all us newbie tiers myself included under newbie would rather wait to the end when you post the pics so everyone can see at the same time and pretty much have the same response WOW
Here's 1st place and 2nd and 3rd place a nice cap comes with 2nd place hope you Men enjoy the ty I know alot of people will learn some stuff from these jig's theres not alot of hair jig post so this otta help those with questions.
I'm shooting for 4th place! LOL
Looking good, now I just have to decide between Bear, Elk, Caribou, and my 6 others hairs. Of course there is the one hair that no one uses but if I decide to use it I am not telling till they are done.
you dang jig tyers sure have a bunch of tricks up your sleeves :D
We still need 1 more ty'er for 27 or 4 for 30 Boy ! that sound's like a bargin offer 1-4-27, 4-4-30? anyway the minnow body molds pour 21 bait's at a time had to make sure ya had enough to go fishin with!
Will we be using any style jig head,weight and hook size?
what-ever size you like!
I see right now I am gonnna have to put on my thinking cap and git me a good design..
Man:Dthis is what its about everybody having a good time some of us thousands of miles from each other,helping each other ty the best jig ya can...Thanks guys and girls.:)

I make a suggestion that the judging be made on the complete set of 27 jigs that each of us send in to you. That way the whole lot of 27ish must be the best!!! Not a bad one in the bunch, per say!
Man Flatfish you out did yourself this time man i wont be able to sleep now !!! I will be up all night thinking of what to do and good thing we got alot of time cause ill probly change my mind 8 times:)
JJ
I'd probably change my mind too,if I had one.:confused::D
I know where some are, but wish I knew general area where you all are at. I know we do have 1 from So. California and another from Maryland, can't get much farther apart!
I've tied spun hair flies for years... start switching over to mostly feathers and chenille on jigs and look what ya-all make me do!!! :eek: I've made many hair jigs over the years, but all were intended for lrg. mouth or smallies. Will be interesting to down size..... I am hoping to get some really good ideas here.
One thing Ya'll need to understand this ain't for the most exotic jig I can tell you these 2 top crappie fishermen will be looking at the simplicity of design with practicality of use!
dang the disco ball with working battery operated lites is out then:(
JJ
yeah and my vibrating liquid crystal nuclear powered crappie seeking spearfishing jig is out too I guess............was really looking forward to tying that thing up and getting rid of all this uranium I have been stockpiling over the last couple years.........practical......hmmmmmmmmm.........
hey just to confirm... we are sticking to the rule that there must be some sort of "hair" for the jig correct?
Far as I know. Is this rule for natural hair only, or does that include synthetic "hair?"
If there is a slot I'll fill it.
The way the fish have been biting here I'd almost be willing to try a nuke jig.:eek: Gonna paint the eyes on my jigs in a bit,then maybe tie a few different ones to see what I like the best.It may take awhile before I find the right one. Have no idea what's going on them.;);):D
