I've been thinking about making the tail into a spear shape lately and have even tried some of it on a few other jigs.

This is the first attempt from start to finish. Tied the first one. Same materials as the Gostop. Very varied the 2nd one a little bit.

These jigs pretty much hold their shape in the water. There's a slight movement at the very tips but not much.

I'm still trying to figure out how to get the hair over the fiber underbody that does not require a lot of trimming to get to shape.

These two should give you the general idea and the first post is of the fiber underbody.

How do you think these would perform in the wild?
