    Default More jigs from wife

    Hi there, this is the wife. Clearly I need to join and post on my own but I haven't thought of a catchy user name yet! I've been playing around a little this week with my starter supplies. Mostly just wanting to get the technique down. Think I am doing pretty good! I know some of them are a little too bushy or fluffly. Used some barbed jigheads and didn't think to cut or file barbs down...makes for a little too much bulk. But, like I said, just trying to play around. A friend left today for Chetek, sent some with for them to field test for me. Hopefully c&c and I can get on the water soon. I cannot imagine the satisfaction of a well of slabs caught on your own jigs! I need to find out soon! I welcome any comments, even constructive criticism! I'll think of a good user name to start posting on my own. I do know that I get a little carried away with the amount of feathers...it's a girl thing! Anyway, having a great time learning and practicing. Thanks again to you pors for all your helpful posts, tips and suggestions!

    Those look awful good to me, only top right looks a little to much but will look good in the water. Just bought me a small pair of light wire snips from craft store that are perfect for snipping off the barb.

    Number them from left to right. You have 11 jigs.
    Do a survey and see which jigs are favorites with fishermen.
    I'll go shopping first. First choice is a pkg of #11.
    Second choice is a pkg of #7.
    Check out at the register.

    I'm just learning and playing! Anyone want to field test? For all I know they will fall apart in the water. I will set up my own user name in next day or so. We haven't had a chance to try them yet! PM c&c if you want to try a couple!

    Anybody know how to set this selection up for a vote, so she can get an idea what we all think? Survey, or something. She is doing great in the idea
    area, IMO.
