I wonder if a Weave would look good?

Prolly not, I don't have enough hair! http://www.smiley-lol.com/smiley/maison/pepe2.gif ...but maybe on a crappie jig! http://www.smiley-lol.com/smiley/loi...rs/lapeche.gif
I watched this Youtube Video posted on another forum and thought I'd try it. It's pretty tricky and the 1st attempt, I did it wrong (up-side-down)

the next 2 I did correctly but I wish the Insect Green was a little more prominent like it is in the video.

I think it may be because I'm trying to wrap the chenille too tight. Oh well, Back to the Lab!

you're getting pretty fancy with that body definitely like that jig. it doesn't matter to the fish if it is upside down or backwards it's good to see you using fly tying techniques on jigs.

Yes and he only messed up a little. Now his one at the top looks like he got it down right now.
