Not long usually but for one I don't like that type box - you fill it up and the hackle, kip, bucktail whatever is gonna get bent or set into a curl and I personnally don't like that.

It would take me a little bit... lol Fatman what kind of box do you use to put your jigs in?
Oh, it won't take you very long at all once you get after it. And that is a good question: what do guys do to keep nicely tied jigs from becoming a messy glob?
That is only your first tray my friend. You will fill many more in your lifetime. Every plan starts with a vision. Work your plan and complete your dream. How long? ..... Not long!

May God be with you. Keep CALM and STAY ANCHORED with your faith.
I have started ordering the 2"x2" poly bag slips, and I put a jig in there all nice and straight, fold the top over and staple it shut. the jigs will stay nice and protected for a long time. I have been getting the poly slips at hagens, and also bought some 1 1/2" x 3" slips for a longer jig. this is working real good, especially for marabou or other delicate materials. I put the jig in there and take a qtip and stick it into the bag and straighten the jig up before closing the slip.
It shouldn't take too long. By the way, I haven't posted much the lst 6 months but your jigs are improving nicely! Keep up the good work!
I really like using waterproof fly boxes for my steelhead jigs since I travel light and do a lot of walking. As for my crappie jigs either fly boxes or (as already mentioned) in small reclosable bags.
