Jointed Minnow

First try for a jig version of the Jointed Minnow. The tail is actually tied by itself and hinged to the jig using mono line. Body made with marabou and Palmer Chenille. Still trying to get a better shape on body but need to get a pair of curved serrated scissors fo shaping!!

That's a great looking jig.

Man O Man,that's a beaute

Nice tie,Len. I can't see a hook so the fish can't either,until it's hanging off their face.

Very NICE!!!

All I can say is....WoW! thats a nice jig.

Len, I just had an idea. have you ever thought of trimming with a battery beard trimmer? Mine was cheap 6 yrs ago and still going strong. Less than $20. Might be able to get the desired effect without the high dollar scissors. Just some food for thought. Great looking jig.
