Thanks for posting your pics Skip. I was wondering whether or not anyone ever used hackle collars on crappie jigs. Hadn't seen any here.
I saw one where the hackle was wrapped candy-cane style around the chanielle body. It was very cool looking...but then again, I'm not eating it.
Thanks fishing nut, I think they will be very good too. I have made quite a few over the years for customers and they seem to like them a lot. I just had never used these feathers that are laced before and I like them too. The cool thing is I have some like these that are not laced and are silver speckled which I think will be awesome too.

If you can find a color in the same material, in white and red, or grey and red color to mimick gill flash it would be awesome! Nice jig!
Thank you!Quote:

As for the grey and with I have both of them and actually the only thing different is the laced feather for the collar and it can be any color one wanted. You can even sue a lot of different types of hackle for that including but not limited to saddle hackle, cape streamer hackle, Hen hackle and many more.
