Mop jigs

Couldn't fish the last couple days so I worked on tying some mop jigs since it's new to me. These have mop chenille tails and palmer chenille bodies. On some I used two colors of palmer chenille wrapping both together at one time to try and match up with the jig head colors. My smaller pill head with #4 and #6 Victory hooks. Also made a couple nickel plated heads using a #10 hot shiner chenille for the tail after burning the tails to a point. Attachment 446238Attachment 446239Attachment 446240Attachment 446241

Some beautiful work.

Very nice Jim. They all look good.

Wow. Beautiful. And that mop material hold slabsauce like crazy. I really like them.

I'm waiting for it to warm up a little before I give it a go but at least it's sunny. I have one of the mop jigs with the red eye tied on one and a bottle of slab sauce in the bag. Will be the first jig I try. I hope I can find some.

I use a small cup or can that I mount off the side of my boat so Slabsauce don't drip on my boat. But mop jigs don't really drip. And you can just see the color change in the mop as it soaks up the sauce. Additionally, with a soaked mop, your casts are longer. The slabsauce oils the way so the jig slides right through the air! lol j/k, but it does make the jig heavier so it does go further. And since it's an oil, it sinks ever so slightly slower down the water column. just sayin'

LOL, here's my slabsauce side of boat dunking setup fyi:
