Imho .....
Microp .... I'm not a tyer, but I am a buyer :D .... and I've seen worse looking jigs on store shelves !! Seriously, I see nothing at all wrong with that jig.
The only thing I will say about it, in any negative sense, is that the tail feathers are a bit long. Now, that's not necessarily a bad thing ... but, if I had it in my box, I'd trim the tail in half. Why, one may ask ?? To put the business end of the hook closer to the mouths of those "nippers" :p You know the ones ... those that like to nip at the end of the tail, kinda "taste testing" the bait. They can be dinks, and they can also be Slabs (I've experienced both) ... and they can also be Sunfish, of course. But, in any case, with a shorter tail (smaller profile) they're more likely to suck the whole jig in, rather than nip at the tail end. And just to put this idea into perspective ... I do the same thing to marabou Roadrunners, as soon as I take them out of the package !! And ever since I've done this, my hookup ratio, on Roadrunners, has dramatically increased.
