So I had an Idea
Last night sitting at my tying bench I came up with an idea in my beady little brain. Decided I would make some jigging spoons. Used a #2 Aberdeen hook, bent the eye as close to 90 degrees as possible, used 26 gauge wire to for the outline and filled with epoxy. I then airbrushed the colors and hand painted the eyes. I have 6 more on the epoxy dryer now that are weighted. should I paint them the same color as the first set or does anyone have any suggestions for colors or color combos I should use. Sorry the pic isn't any better I had to use my phone. My wife put my camera away and I can't find it.:confused::mad:
Thanks,
Jim

Black/gray or silver is a good color. They kinda look like flutter jigs, nice work.

Great looking little jigs. The sky's the limit on color combos but I would do a silver/black or silver/gray one.

Ok, here's some new ones. These are weighted and I changed the body shape a little. The ones on the left are based on the Electric Chicken color scheme. The middle ones are based on the Opening Night color scheme, pearl white body, chartreuse tail and crystal flash with a piece of silver holographic tinsel down the middle. For the last two, I really liked the black and chartreuse I made earlier so I made another. And the last one was inspired by watching the Saints play while I was making these. Plus I wanted one with gold.
