Working on about 2-dozen of these to try underneath a float as soon as the ice is off the lakes here. 1/80th #8 hook with some new chenille called Shiney Black, Shiner, and Emerald Shiner.

Look great Len. Love the mallard with that chenille. Nice eyes on those tiny heads!:eek:
I love them, those are my favorite kind of jigs, they will catch fish. Where did you get those tiny hackles?? feathers. The tails. (whatever) I will be glad to put a little history behind them.

nice-looking jigs
Len, those are really sharp. Good work. I bet they'll do well pitchin boathouses too. Better use 6 lb line though cuz the bass may think they look like minnows too.
Where did you get those three new chenilles?

Great jigs there Len. I just tied one up with peacock chinelle and it looks fine. Thank you for the inspiration. ole giller
they are some nice colors arent they, tied a few myself about 2 wks ago
They look great I really like working with Mallard flank or just about any soft hackle for that manner. I need to get up a supply of colors I only have natural as well.
Look good but I like the two elow the black chenille one. Look real minnow like.
