BUGGY JIG IDEAS?/gill jigs.

Looking for any gill buggy jig ideas to fill mine and grandpa's boxes for spring.

Read through the gill section and the jig making section and look at the patterns that are shown and you'll get lots of great ideas for jig patterns

cant go wrong with black- brown - charteruse yellow - orange or red in it somewhere...the guys in tennessee on reel foot order alot of red...

x2 what Pbug said

no, no, no leterally looking for something bug like. Not so much jig like, Leaning towards a hopper or cricket fly pattern. But thanks anyways guys.

why not a yellow jacket, hornet or a honeybee?

Already tied some bees up and hackle tail jigs. Bees are a go to, but looking for something else to throw at them.

I'd tie some little bugger jigs.

check out the jig pics in the sticky man":cool:

I like a black wooly bugger tied on a 1/80th jig and a red, size 10 sickle hook. I use rabbit zonker fur for the tail . Just cut off a small clump (just hair) and tie in , add black chenille with a palmered black grizzly hackle . I fish it about 18" under a weighted small pear shape float . It seems everything loves them . I've caught bluegills , crappie, and some monster size golden shiners on them . Real buggy looking . Could add some rubber legs if you want, but not needed . gillchaser
