First efforts. Can't wait to get em slimy!

Here's some pics of my first jigs. I actually tied several of most of these, about 20 in all for yesterday's first foray into the jig tying world. Here they are!

The first is a purchased lure, a Shineee Hineee that originally had silver tinsel chenille that I overwrapped with blue to match what's hot at Lake Leon.

Next is a small Electric Chicken I can't wait to use, chart chenille, pink marabou and a few strands of flashbou.

Next is my version of a Shinee Hinee orangish head, blue wrap, will dye the tail in Spike It with a few silver tinsels for flash.

Pretty in Pink with a little flashbou.

Red, white, n blue. Red and blue threads in the tail for a lil' contrast.


I'm definately open for hints and tips, but go easy! This is my first batch, and I don't use a vice. Just my hands. Gonna keep practicing, but I'm really enjoying it so far! Can't WAIT to try a few and catch my first fish on a hand-tied jig!

Man! Awsome work! I've tried the "hands on" / no vise approach and it is tough, my hat is off to you. Don't see anything to pick about other than they are not the colors for my lakes..... Tie up some more in gray/silver and send them my way! :)
