here are some of mine I thought I would share
Thanks for sharing....lets get an up Close of a couple...what do you call those heads??
your drying rack is awesome.
those are a bannana head jig. here is a pic of some 1oz. I am working on for flounder fishing. thanks for the compliment on the drying rack I use it to dry the eyes and glue after tying. the rack you see on the table under the box is what I use to cure the heads in my toaster oven. I powder paint everything.Attachment 53647 oh by the way I've got the molds to pour that head from 1/8 oz. to 2oz. the best head I have found for trolling for stripers.
great job....awesome looking jigs
yellow dog those are awesome thats what i am wanting to make myself...
how does the bucktail get so bushy???
it is a combanation of two things one is the hair I have some that are super straight and then the full flair I call it. The other thing is how much pressure you put on the thread when you wrap and there is a little flair collar on the head. Does not matter to me cause when I put a trailer on the jig it helps to flair it also. Also most people mess up when tying by putting to much hair and it will not flair or flow right when in the water. less is more in this case.
what type of thread you using?? do you tie any other patterns?
I am using a size E thread that use to be made by guidbro. but they have went out of business. Found another supplier though real cheap and good thread. being tying with it for about 3 months now. 25.00 or so for 3500 yards. yes I do tie a few varations with 2 tone hair on some.
sure would like to get some of that thread.....can you put a good bind on it??
yes you can. told you wrong 28.00 for 6500 yards.
put me in touch with someone....or is it a secrete...do they have different colors
just finished up tying around 300 for this week. now back to the lead pot and paint for a couple 100 more.
