Anything besides painting the heads that you think I should work on or tips would be appreciated.

here are a few jelly jigs I made in the past.Attachment 108640

Thx fatman..I was still chewing on that one :biggrin

Make sense.

Snake those are great looking jigs.

I used Tinsel Chenille (gold and bronze) for the body and fine calf tail and Midge Flash for the tail.

Flash was Root beer/pearl and green pearl.

Nice jigs slabbacks.
