Hey Skeet you like Guinea huh? I have one for you, but a little harder to tie since the feather stem has to sit on top of the hook shank and be perfectly flat going across the back or bottom depending on how your looking at it. I first tied one of these (which was something I just dreamed up) about 4 years ago and took it out and caught lots of bass and crappie. Most everything wanted it as I pulled it along like I do everything in the spring. Gonna put a picture in a minute, but let me explain tying it. You have to cut you feather into one of my little V's, LOL! Then hold it well and tie in on your hook like you see in this picture and once you finish thing the jig keep it in you vise, flat! I use some flex glue I make, but Flexament will do just fine. Anyway take some home made tool of wood, like a big tooth pick or wood skewer like I use and dip in in the glue and just put a little going right down that stem on both sides and on both sides of the feathers and let it dry. This will help keep the feather from just collapsing on it's self and keep the tips apart. I call is a wind jig and I don't make them on the cheap end and they are a bit of a pain to make, but they work great!
If you have any questions just PM me.
