Ok heres the pic of that monster 1/4-2 jig
Looks Good!!!How many raps of chenille did you have to use?
i used 2 wraps... waiting on a 1/2 oz lol
What you fishing for . . . . . JAWS lol.
some tennessee guy lol.....i did see in the TN section they did catch a shark in the river lol
1/4 ounce huh. Biggest I have tied is a 3 ounce 5/0 extra long sea guard jig. I want to see a crappie eat that one. Maybe I need to go bigger for local crappie, my little stuff don't work but maybe not over 1/4 ounce for crappie.
Nice jig... Those biguns make some clean looking jigs.... I love tying 1/16 versus 1/32 and smaller..... But no one I know fishes anything bigger than 1/32 in south la.... Not much deep water here in Acadiana ..
What's your tail.... ???
Speaking of big jigs, here's one I tied for my friend Shadow. He was catching way too many whole fryers. LOL. Sorry Dwayne, had to show 'em what big is.

Here is what I used to tye before I found this site,lol.Hundreds and hundreds of them.I tyed these today for my brother in law,he's going to somewhere in Massachusetts for haddock next month.They were a lot easier to tye then the little ones,but with one of them, took as much material then 2 dozen crappie sized jigs.
