It appears that you are on your way now!! Jig tying to me is clearly a form of art. I always thought I might like to get into jig tying... but I have too many other tedious art type hobbies going on that keep me full time occupied... but I certainly love to see some of the awesome jig tying combinations that are done by so many talented tiers on this forum. Thanks for sharing your Christmas bounty with the rest of us and I am looking forward to seeing some more of your artwork in the future... and of course hearing how well they produce on the water.
