I would be more impressed if someone on this board tied them and really see nothing special here at all. There are plenty of guys here that can tie as well as these are tied for sure.

This is a jig tying board and would like to see you post your jigs and not some store bought jigs tied in Haiti. Heck even is Wally had tied them there would be nothing wrong with posting them on this board. I don't know why Wally needs you to push his jigs, but please just post what you tie.

This kind of post would be better posted on the Classified/Swap Meet board.

However this is just my opinion.

nice jigs, certain they'd catch fish. bodys look a little small and alot of exposed hook but what the heck. if they're hungry they'll eat em

I think they look fine. However, like a couple have already said, I think some if not most on this board tie as well as that. Nothing real inventive about them. Nothing new. Jus plain old crappie jigs with Mr. Crappie's stamp on em. :rolleyes:

I was in the store lookin at jigs the otha day and I was amazed at the craftsmanship I was seeing. I was more amazed that the jigs were actually sellin fer $1.50 and $2 apiece. Heck I used to pay for em like everybody else. Jus makes me happy to know that I can tie my own these days and have a higher quality jig and one customized for the colors and sizes my crappies like to eat.

Thanks for posting those though. I been curious to see what Mr. Wally's jigs were gonna look like. I think they look great for basic jigs. Good craftsmanship and great color choices.

I am confused - a normal state of affairs.....

Yeah way back when I first started with bucktail jigs, mine were better tied and didn't get chewed up as bad as the store boughts.

UG - I do believe he was just trying to pull our leg.

Skips point being, anyone can go out and buy a jig... not everyone can make their own and this forum is intended for people to show off what THEY create and learn things they did not know how to do before. Hope I'm not putting words in your mouth Skip, and no offense intended to anyone!

I know this board has helped me alot and look here for new tips and ideas.

You are on point! I know this site is not for advertising and that there is a board for that. I think most of the people on all the boards like seeing what people on here make and this board in particular is a tying board and don't feel anyone should be posting pics from some store bought jigs. All that would have been needed for me to delete the entire thread is a price and I just don't see the use in posting some store bough jigs tied in what ever country here. I almost deleted it because of showing the packaging, but thought since he posted the first one everyone should see what is not for this board.

This is a learning and maybe a little boasting board.
