    Boy, there are some true 'artists' at making crappie jigs out there. Some look too nice to let fish tear them up. I can see some of them made 10X larger and displayed in a frame on the wall.

    I find that the smaller the chenille, the better it does and looks. More wraps, of course, but a nicer finish. Your jigs look great!!

    Thank you!
    Some of the big stuff like the bottom one even though it's big some colors kind of lay back when wet. A few colors of it are more stiff and don't lay down as much. My personal favorites are this silver and probably the Black which are both soft. Well I also like the Rainbow and wen wet it's colors show even better than when dry.

    The top jig is a 1/32 and #2 is 1/16 for size.

    They all like too purty to even fish with!
    I can't do em that fancy but these are a few I've liked " look wise" besides split ring on last one. Still need pliers.







    Still learning.

    You can put that split ring on without pliers if you want. It may not be as easy, but if you have some pretty sharp tweezers it will do.
