Looks to me like he has Krystal Flash Chenille on the body of the yellow one with marabou tail and a little Krystal Flash in the tail.

The other one looks like just marabou with Krystal Flash in the tail.

Maybe he can confirm this or tell what I have wrong if anything.

I'd like to know what he used for the body of the bottom one.The tail almost looks like there is some pheasant in there.Can I get a material list on the bottom one?

Thanks for the compliments.
The jigs on the left hand side are 1/16 oz. tail is marabou and crystal flash, body is cactus chenille. The jigs on the right, the tail is pheasant marabou with pearl crystal flash, I also tie in pheasant marabou about midway up the hook shank. I tie it in by the tip and then fold it in half and wrap a collar. The body is a blend of rabbit, red squirrel, and lite brite dubbing.
As an added note, all of my jig heads I paint with a mixture of Devcon 2 part epoxy which I color with Testors enamel paint.
It cannot be painted on with a brush. I use a toothpick to apply it.
THIS MIXTURE OF EPOXY AND ENAMEL DOES TO CHIP OFF.

As an added note, my fish'n buddies are really not thieves.
Great group of guys that would do anything for anybody.

I like to tie a few extra every year, so my buddies with boats will take me fishing.:D

[Black Crow]

Gosh those are nice. The craftsmanship is excellent. You got that chenelle down perfectly. Also good use of flash in the tails. Good looking jigs for sure.

Just curious, in what color water do you fish those brown ones?

[hogan]

The brown ones I fish in all water. Sunny, Cloudly, windy, muddy.... They have always been productive.
Here is a fly that I tie that I fashioned the jig from.
This fly works equally well if you are into fly fishing.
