Well I had a tiny bit of the really pretty Orange Chenille left

So even though I don't have the beads or propellers except for the 2 samples I have I wanted to see what I could do with the scraps of chenille.

So anyone like this?

Skip I like it!! Only thing and I know it's laying flat on the table but from the picture it looks like there's no space between the head and the bead for the propellor to spin freely.

Hopefully its just the picture but if not can you slide the chenille back?? to create more space???

I know it looks tight, but it spins free. I did plan a tiny bit more room, but it just didn't happen There is however enough room to spin free, probably only about 1/32" to 1/16". I hope that is enough, LOL!

Skip, I like the boolie jigs, and have quite a few tied up. you can always do the spin test, hold the jig by the hook,jighead facing you, and blow directly towards it, it should spin freely, if it does your golden.

Thanks Crappiehappy, tried that and spins like a top!

That looks good skip! What size propeller and bead did you use?

Thanks dandeman. Propeller is #0 and the bead I think is 1/8"

Thank you!

I like it.... The true test is, will it catch fish ? Have you ever fished this before ? Or, anything similar ? I have never seen nor fished anything with a prop on it. I do not troll, only single pole vertical jig. I would assume something along these lines is designed to be pushed or pulled or cast and not jigged vertically. But, if nothing else, it looks good n fishy !! Nice tie !!

Thank you! I have not fished it before, but what I have been told from others that have made and or fished them, they do catch fish and lots of different kind of fish. I am waiting on an order to come in with 1000 each #0 and #1 Propellers and may end up also adding some Gold Plated ones. Also a bunch of beads too.

Happy thanks for chiming in on this, It looked kind of tight. Skip glad the test worked good and when you test it out post up buddy!!!!!!!!!! Thanks

Looks good Skip. I used to make those about six years ago. Don't know why I stopped. Might have to dig them out of the old tackle box and teach them to swim again.
