Look what I'm fixing to do.

Getting some 1/16oz collarless jigs painted to tie up for my retail store. Fun day today!

You are starting off with a good color Have fun!

Now you'll have to get busy and tie up some feathers on the jig heads.

Those red head ones are going to get white marabou, white ultra chenille, and red flash tied with red thread. Should make for a good bleeding bait.

I also painted some blue to get white marabou, silver flash, and variegated brown/yellow ultra chenille.

Didn't paint any green chart. heads but when I do they will get a green flour. marabou, red flash, red ultra chenille treatment.

I'll post pics as I get some made up. I also want to tie some with hackle in front as well. Going to hopefully sell these to my crappie guys and my creek/river guys here in town at my store.

I've been learning to tie foam flies and wooly buggers lately. Thought I'd take a break from that and tie up some crappie stuff.

Later

Ha, just looked at the pic and realized I should've cleaned off my bench before taking the pic. In the upper right hand corner is a couple pieces of brown knife handle material for a bowie knife I'm making for a guy.

Anyone want to guess what the brown handle material is? I'll give you a hint.....it can get up to 4 foot long, comes from the tundra of Alaska.

Ok what is it? I don't have a clue.

Oosic....the fossilized penal bone of a walrus. Makes great knife handles

[TurboDan]

some of us, at our age, know all about fossilized.... well any way, post some pics of knives when done.
