Bought some Macrame cord in white. Cutting a piece about a foot long, then extracting the weave and then combing the material with a dog brush, yields the white stuff you see being used as a shad belly. It also looks nice with flash mixed in. The idea is not mine, rather a knockoff of the expensive EP Fibers. One roll of macrame cord, at EP Fiber prices, would cost about 3 thousand bucks. One roll of make your own at Amazon- $13.
E P probably has a bigger pool than Slab.
Just saying. Anyways I wanted to try my hand at making EP style stuff. I can’t say that I am super impressed with the stuff but the night is young. I was able to color it with sharpies and do some interesting things.
The jig you see has Mare-A-Boo on top and will give a fine profile to even the most ridiculous fish. So I am thinking it is probably gonna be a belly material for me.
Maybe they will bite this one……
