    Default Dyed Badger


    This is badger hackle that I dyed this week. I really like how they turned out. I love the black lateral line these add to the jig. I will definitely dye a few more colors of these... Maybe fl orange.... Any more ideas for colors?

    They look good. I would try gray and I agree the orange will be a good color.

    Hunter you die them like any other feather. Only the cream color on the outer edges takes the dye, not the black.

    Orange for sure, a bright gray would be nice too. Too bad they don't have a silver dye, they would be perfect for minnows. If you have some that are wide enough they would make a really nice body jig tying them in over a red thread base or a crystal chenille. That lateral black line would make them so realistic that crappie wouldn't know it wasn't a minnow.
    I love taking my kids fishing, now if I could just manage to fish at the same time.
