paint for jigs
What do folks use? I just got back into fly tying after a long hiatus. I simply got tired of paying three bucks for a fly I could tie myself. I'll still spring for the size 22 trout stuff, but $3.00 for a clouser? No. So I bought a new vise, dug out the old tools, ordered some dead animals and hooks off ebay and I'm off.
But I've also started doing jigs. I bought a couple of hundred heads for about twenty bucks. Back in the day folks just used nail polish, so that's what I did. I went and bought a half dozen bottles of the cheap stuff at Wally World in white and black and green. But clearly from looking at y'alls work times have changed.
Without getting too elaborate here, what do you use and what do I need to do good basic jigs?
Thanks
