    Jigs look good nice combos! You might want to consider a little shorter length on the chenille body they fish better in my opinion. Looks Good!
    any color is fine as long its black and chartruse

    Nicely done. I also would use a shorter shank hook to get a better perpotioned body. The last one is really good. I would fish that one in a heart beat. Love the color combo. Keep tying and you will get better than this old geezer.

    Those look good! the last one is my favorite. do you recall the chenille color of the last one. Keep at it, looks like you have the hand of it already.

    Looks good! I too would not go past the barb with the chenille and usually stop some place near the hook point. Also notice your last one tied on a Sickle hook, they have a shorter shank before the bend and I really like the shorter style like that. For sure I wouldn't go past the point with a regular bend hook as the shank is longer.

    They will all catch fish though so good job!
