"I wished I could remember where I first saw those diamond dust jigs" - Tackleunderground maybe...
That may be it!! Many moons ago..... I made a few 1/64oz. gold head brown body & tail with some root beer krystal flash. Took them ice fishing to the Bay in Erie and whipped a bunch of gills. They just work, perch, gills, crappie and stream trout. Thx for the idea!
