I am brand new to making crappie jigs. I have a nice vise, scissors and bobbins as I have tied my own bass jigs for the past several years. I am looking for information on reputable dealers to buy hackle, chenille and flash. Also looking for recommendation on a mold and sickle hook to pour 1/16 and 1/8 ball jigs without a collar. Thank you all for being so welcoming to a newbie.
I would contact Skip (Skiptomylu) right here on cdc. He should be able to help you or steer you in the right direction.

Welcome and I sent you a PM. Also know there are a lot of good places to buy materials and some are listed in the sticky post on this board.

Pm returned. Very interested in dealing with an individual instead of a larger company.
I second Skip. Not just a vendor, gives great tips, and provided some samples with my order!
Skip is one of the most knowledgeable tyers out there and is a true gentleman!!
I placed an order with Skip to get me started. He was very helpful and seems like a great guy.
Welcome to the addiction of tying. Can hardly wait to see some of your work.
Skip is a great resource, I also like Crazy Angler:

Also, Ebay is a great resource. You can spend hours on Ebay just looking and buying :P
