    Nice work. How heavy a thread do you use? When I do thread bodies I use 210 denier and 70 when I use a chenille body. Hope this helps. Now lets see some fish with those in their mouth, Shouldn't take long!

    I'm using the 210. Haven't tried chenille yet. Thanks everybody for the encouraging comments. Now i need some place to keep them.

    Chaunc - Papaperch from OGF here. You might as well set up a special place for your jig tying and be done with it. Hopefully your wallet will survive the hit this hobby is going to put on it.These guys on this thread are constantly coming up with new ideas that causes me to order this and that.

    I can't stop tying and am never satisfied with finished product. I believe the fish are no where picky as we think. No hope for you now LOL.

    Hey Chaunc,

    I knew you could not resist posting the photos on the jig tying board. As I mentioned to you before, you are becoming quite good at this and I am sure the Crappie in your home lake will thank you. Congrats again on your new hobby. They look real good.
