Thanks Skip! Means a lot coming from you. I am a big admirer of your jigs.
I like the kip tail a lot as well. Holds a nice shape in the water.

Pretty much all my materials were gifted to me by a couple of forum members. Thanks guys!
I am on a tight budget and am working with I materials I have for now. Really looking forward to getting ahead a bit so I can Start ordering some of the things I really like.
The simple fiber jigs work really good around here when you have the big bluegill and crappie moving into the same areas for spawn. They are not my favorites either but they sure do catch a lot of fish.
