Was experimenting with tying more 'top and bottom' jigs today and tied these. The top of the body is minner/shiner, with a white bottom. The tails are crystal flash with white and gray arctic fox.



Tied the top one first, then one of the cats started kicking up a fuss in the kitchen. I got up and refilled his water bowl, then came back and started the second. Got to the step where I would tie in the white part of the tail, only to find my patch of white hair missing. Looked all over the place thinking I'm losing my mind, and finally found a slobbery ball of fox hair in the corner. The little goober snuck out of the kitchen while I was filling his bowl and must have thought it was one of his rabbit hair toys. Had to comb it out and let it dry. Cat spit doesn't affect the catchability, I hope.

The guilty party:
