    Default Sitting still


    These were tied a few months ago. A friend near made her own lead head mold. It's really diff from most other heads out and I've foundem to be a good pendulum pitching jig in how they cut the water.

    This'n, I've never had any ultra chenille to weave with, so tried it. Would be better with more contrasting colors

    That's almost a walleye head. I can see where it would cut the water better. I'm a little slow and just started squeezing some in a vise for unifomity and I like em. I think they will stay under me better when I move around while fishing deeper water the fall and winter. Getting a flat area for a stick on eye is a plus too.

    Thank man. The eye is actually recessed. She did a great job on it. Especially for her first mold.

    Nice ties, really different head on that jig. Love doing the weave type tying and yes better with like Black and Chart. Also definitely better to weave with Ultra Chenille or Velvet Chenille as some call it. I have lie 3 different sizes of colors and even another size for just White. I have a lot of the White probably more than I will ever use.

    I like them all.

    Do you ever do the Tiger Weave?

    Thx, Heath, Skip, Donnie and Doug.

    I enjoy tying em but I'm not good with the lingo, Skip. I only know 3 weaves thx to friendS. Thatn was with ultra chenille. Gives a cool over under look, but is just for fun. As much as i like trying new things, I try to keep a budget thats fits my fishing style. I don't have a supply stash like you or really the desire to. Just play when opportunities arrive. Would rather be on the river. You always have everything. That's awesome, but you do say it a loooooot. Nothing negative meant, I like your jigs a lot and can tell they're well made and high in craftsmanship.

    Heath, gotta get together bf I go AWOL… think we'd get along.

    Donnie,
    If I could take a vacation to fish it'd be your way. Eould be nice to meet you. One day... And hopefully meet Scott and Mr G again.

    Doug, you've been MIA in diff parts where people enjoyed your contributions. Maybe consider checking back?

    The last pic of my son is something I'm very proud of and motivates me.

    Thx again.
