Cat Whisker Jig

Not sure if there is a specific name within the crappie realm, but i based this design off a trout fly called the Cat Whisker, so I'll just call this the Cat Whisker Jig for now. I like using this method to put multiple colors of hair, in this case marabou, so that they are split above and or below the main body, rather than bunched up at the tail. Let me know what your thoughts are :)

Great looking tie brother. I think that technique gives the jig a nice natural layered look.

thx mate! that's what I was going for instead of bunching them together at the end. you can spread the colors way better this way!

Let's see some creativity here yah?

No problem. let me know what you think and if you have any new inspirational ideas from it :)

I have tied jigs like that before, except using hair for the wing and tail. I am sure it will work.

Neat. Never tied a jig like that before.

I bet it looks real nice when wet ….all swimmy as heck …..
I would pitch it for sure
