Jilly Jelly Fever

It was a miserable day today and my knee was really aching. I treated myself to some home therapy by fixin up some more Jilly Jelly Jigs (See Photo) and then made some more Sexy Lady jigs like I did a few years ago.(Photo from 2 years ago)

I get my Jilly Jelly grub bodies from Snake River and thread neck hackle through them. They are fish catching mama's. I am aching to get out and go fishing with my pastor and have results like the last time we went out. (Photo from my cell phone)

I have cabin fever big time.

Sounds like fun David. Have yourself a ball. Save a few for me when I get my knees healthy again.

I will be close to the Alabama line Ship......just look for the green light at night, lol

you guys are making me feel guilty. I feel like I should go out and start making plastic baits we probably will hear pretty darn quick. We just got everything pretty well settled down and after this coming week. Maybe we will get back into it. We have a new mold coming. The crappie dancer coming this week to replace the other one bear baits is replacing the other one it was defective so I'm really proud of them. To do this, we are anxious to make up some of those. I think they will be a good bait. I hope you guys have a good fishing trip coming up. I haven't got out yet and don't know if I will this year and all we are getting action on property so I may have to bailout it here this summer. I would love to get into a new home before winter.

ship you did a good job on the bodies and feathers jelly jigs. They look fantastic you run out you let me know. I want to keep your fingers busy might have to put you to work making them for me.

You taught me about using a needle to thread the hackle. The jelly jigs are very slippery and I stuck myself a time or two. May have to use forceps or something to hold it while I work. If I can help, let me know.

I hope "G" catches a ton of Crappie on the Alabama state line. He will probably post photos that will blow your mind. The south has huge Crappie here. That is just how it is.

Ship.....get your MS map out and find Meridian...look just north of it a little and look at that big lake.....thats Okatibbee it is right by the little town of Collinsville. I am taking my boat down and will be fishing with Hook One, and ScottV, and Wayne. Thats Scotts home lake so my boat is gonna follow his boat around hee hee hee

ha ha ha fellas.....beat you all to em...was out today w/the little man....we had a ball

ship, how do you get the hackle to stay in those jigs when you thread the hook through them. I made up some like that one time and it pushed the hackle back down when I put the hook in. I did not fool with it much, just tried it a time or two and decided it wasnt worth the hassle. Maybe I did not try hard enough and gave up too soon.
