Been playing around with some new fish heads I got. I made fins out of mallard flank feathers. I don't know how it acts in the water but it looked kinda neat.

I'm sure it looks AWESOME under a cork. Where do those heads and eyes come from and what is its size. Are those the ones your tying for the swap.....lol.
Thanks Nightprowler64, no I just came up with that idea but my swap jigs do have some mallard flank. I got the fish heads from Ron Don. I've never seen more detail, lips, gill plates and even nostrils! I two-color powder painted the one in the pic but with nail polish you don't cover up all the details. P.S., I got the 3D eyes from Ron Don also.Quote:

Try that pattern in a brown with black tail. It resembles a sculpin. Great looking bait you tied. I hope to get that good and creative one day.
I tried one with some bucktail and black marabou.Quote:

I like the bucktail jig, looks great. That jig will look good with an orange head too.:)

Those colors have been doing great for me the past few weeks. Looks like you have a winner.:)
