Here are my first attempts at crappie candy, not too bad but not my best work for sure. Very light they could be used as flies but I will likely jig with them under a float or from a boat. I know I am supposed to be using straight eye hooks but I don't have any so these will have to do.
Those look good to me. A split shot or two up the line a bit will cure that weight issue.
Looks good to me!
Very nice! I am sure they take a little longer to tie.
Yes light weight for sure and are flies. Hooks can be substituted to what you have and still work fine. I use several different ones and some don't have the straight eye. I usually do use some type streamer hook.
The look fine and I see you have played with material type and color, so that is a good thing too.

They take a little time but I have tied ones that take a LOT longer. I just need to get the tie off smaller and work on quantity of material for both gills and crappie.
Skip, what do you use for the bottom material, what would be the back when in the water material?
Look good. I have never seen any of them before, nice.
look like fish catchers to me. Look real good
Beautifull fish.Sure to catch fish as long as you can get them to em.I like the browm and orange.
