They look cool, try maybe some lighter ones as 1/32 and 1/64oz for bream and crappie as well. the name caught my interest i, i make a "Glow Bug" as well:

thanks icejohn, only the bodys glow on the chart. ones. i had those other pics so i added them to see wat people think. Where did you find the glow tail if u dont mind me askin? and wat kind of material is it? i use mostly kip tail but the pink and blue ones in the pics here i used a feather flower i found at hobby lobby.
Hareline.com has about anything you need, I think it's called glow flashabou. Jannsnetcraft.com is. Another one I use.Quote:

thanks for the info icejohn.... i had been using jansnetcraft and barlows but they dont have alot of variety for there chenelle
Check with Crazy Angler Tackle or Grandpa Bobs or Grizzly Jigs alot of us use them all for materials
Welcome to CDC and to tying. Not bad for only tying a few months :) When you get some feathers that are used for tying jigs & flies you will enjoy tying more feather jigs. Most of the time feathers from craft stores will fade as the colors will run when you get them wet.
Welcome to the board and CDC! Jigs look pretty good and as time goes by you will get better and better. Colors are good and will catch fish so at least your on a good path.
I make some Glow Jigs my self and think they do well even in the day time and actually have done better during the day than at night, but have used them more then too. Not sure why I have not tried them more at night when I go, but have just a few time in 5 or 6 years I have been making them. Here is a link to a pic of mine if you would like to see and this was just holding them under my tying table. DSC00239.JPG
Hareline you have to have a business as they do not sell to the public, but most of their and most other companies items can be bought at lots of places including Crazy Angler, but also Bob Marriott's has probably more items than anyone else I know of.
Enjoy the hobby and have fun!

thanks for the info stumphunter and fatman... its nice to join a network where people are friendly and try to help
thanks skip... what is the link to bob marriotts?
nevermind skip i found it i was spelling it wrong lol thanks
Sorry I didn't give that one, but glad you found it. They have good service too. I use to buy from them a good bit before I worked on accounts with mostly wholesale places and Mfg. I would still buy from them if I needed or wanted something they have I couldn't get.
would u b willing to sell some of your glow bugs icejohn???
