    Default Something a little different


    A good friend of mine who's been tying jigs for a long time taught me his method. Below you will see a few variations of the jigs I've tied with my new gained knowledge. The color schemes are endless. He pours a lot of his own heads, I adapted his tying method to use with over the counter jig heads that are designed with the required long barbed collar. The heads have Gamakatsu hooks and are 1/16. The skirt material is silicone. and the wings are made from vinyl.

    The sources we use the most often and with the best variety of colors are pool floats and cheap rain gear.

    Great idea, truly outside the box thinking developed those. Good colors, and it's clear the fish like em too.
    Creativity is just intelligence fooling around
