Picked up a few things as I passed BPS monday and gave them a spin tonite. Big-uns are 1/8 and tied for the smallies I hope to get a chance at this weekend. 5 are 1/16 and 1 is a 1/32. Just foolin around. more for the box under them all. Oh yeah, got some pink too but ran out of steam before I could get to really fool with it.
Nice jigs, skeetbum
First off, your jigs look great!! I want some for my box.... :cool:
Funny you should post this..... I was thinking of posting a question on why no one uses yellow, at least that I see shown in picts. In reading a few old fly tying books, when it comes to crappie, all of them say to use yellow/black/white. He!!, I don't even own any yellow feathers or tails..... Think I might have some ultra chenille in yellow, but thats it! Should I make out a new order???????? Someone please tell me yes! lol :D
Skeetbum - You be sure and let me know how those do on the water.
Yeah guys, it is ironic- I just tied a marabou/chenille version of the red/yellow crappie tube- a productive color on my main lake.... anyone up for a quick tie? :cool::D
those are really nice jigs congrats ,you can send any extra to me
I should have hit the pillow 1/2 hour ago. Either that or should be out fishin' :D beautiful night.....Quote:

Guess I'm gonna have to become a night owl if I want to get into one of your show and ties. Y'all must be insomniacs. The jigs look real good though.
Should catch fish for sure and looks like you tying is coming along just fine.
I have 3 shades of yellow in both marabou and hackle and like them all, LOL!
I see one that you tied with yellow & black marabou and if you try to put the black in the middle I think you will like it. All you have to do is tie in a little yellow and then a really small amount of black and then yellow again. It should come out a lot like my Sig pic.
You may also want to try one with a hackle collar in place of palmered hackle. I like them just as much.
Skip
Like that two toned head one with the yellow, Nice jigs

I like the collars m'self, but was mostly worn out and had to work the next day. Just had to get my fingers into it for a while. Now tomorrow we try some of those too. Thanks for all the response everyone.
