Open Palete

Hey guy and gals, here's your chance to help me make some top shelf poney jigs for my personal tackle bag and yours. I just received this mold and thought I would let one of you design them. These are 1/16 oz X #4 Red Sickles. Here's the deal, You submit your idea and I will pick the one I like the best. If I pick your color combo, I will send you a six-pack for FREE. So put your thinking cap on and submit your best design. One suggestion per person.... GOOD LUCK!

That is it Crappiehappy" KELLY GREEN" I could not think of the color for the life of me other then it was green!!

Orange/Red head, white crystal antron body, and duck flank body. Gotta make that happen. How much for a dozen? Lol, I got to have some.

One of the originals Peacock!!!!!!! you can use maribou, feather tip or kip tail, and punisher lures sells some really nice craft hair thats used on the original float and fly jigs.

Chartreuse (greenish not yellow)/Teal (hard to find but you can actually take some peacock herl and twist it and reinforce it with thread then put it on like chenille)/Chartreuse (greenish not yellow)

Gloss red head, neon orange body (or close to it) and black skirt/tail would look nice... and maybee 2 thin red trailer strips on each side going past the skirt just slightly. :)

Black head, Crazy Angler "Brim Buster" chenille, chartreuse tail. Either marabou or hackle. If you have some gadwall flank, use that for the tail instead, along with some copper Krystal Flash!

Yellow chart. head with pink sprinkles, heathers best chenille from crazyangler, and yellow chart. hackle tail with red krystal flash

Keep them coming! Deadline is Friday 4/15 @ 5:oo pm.

head= blue
body= orange
tail= silver marabou or hackle
= DEADLY

That looks pretty close to what i had in mind (your last pic) night prowler :)

Chartreuse (Flo Yellow) head - Teal chenille body - Chartreuse (Flo yellow) marabou tail .... would be my pick. The "Roadrunner" guys used to have this color combination, but discontinued it. (& they told me that they had no plans to revive it :eek: Doh ) They called the color combo, "Peacock" ... and it was one of my "go to" RR's Thumbs Up (until I lost the last one I had :o )

.... cp :cool:

Thanks to everyone for all the great suggestions. The WINNER is ACSooner80. PM me your address and I get them tie and shipped this week.
Thanks again,
