Nice Skip. Looks like the ant meets the butterfly. Nice job on the glitter and glue around the feather material!

Thanks, Actually that is not glitter, it's Fly Tying Powder Blue Pearlescent. I used UV glue so I could get it like I want without worry of it drying until I hit it with a UV light.

I like that first one its almost like a John Deere with a little light blue in it... Thats pretty sweet... The glob (I'm sure there was a better way to put it) securing the hackle to the jig is that the UV stuff? or is that just some sort of glue? Those look good tho I'm sure they will catch fish!

Eh, I'm at work and apparently my log in timed out so I didn't get to read your last post before making mine... I sort of thought that might have been that uv stuff you talked about before... Nice jigs!

Skip good looking ties!!!!!!!!!

I made the glue a bump like that on purpose to put the Blue Pearlescent powder in it to shine and have color and not just clear and to do something besides holding the thread.

Thanks guys!

Skip those look real nice , colors should work great

I like the blue pearl powder and the uv glue "glob" bump, how many different color of the powder do you have

again very good looking jigs sir

Very,very nice prop jigs Skip....I really like the colors..

Thanks guys!

Short grub I just have the one color as it's not all that cheap and I wanted to try it first, but soon wili order the other 3 that I am aware of. Red, Green and Phospherescent.

Outside the box, and very well done. Good stuff.

Wow!! those look great! the colors on the first one really pop.

Skip, nice looking jigs. What size propellers do you recommend for 1/16th and 1/32nd oz jigs and where do you buy them.

I used #0 on 1/32 and #1 on the 1/16. I buy from Worth, but need to buy a lot of them from a place like that. I will probably start selling some reasonable soon. I ,ay also end you buying some Gold Plated ones as well. These are Polish Brass.

Thanks guys! Rad that first one is one of my favorite colors to put over a Gold Plated head which that is. It's Candy Yellow and over Silver or unpainted heads it comes out a lot more green. Next I am thinking of adding in a little Gold Holo Glitter to see how it comes out.

Skip you have done it again, got me drooling over my keyboard, those sure are neat looking jigs.

LOL, Thank you Jack!

Those are Awesome skip!!! I'd say the experiments there are a great success.

Thanks Dandeman!

Skip you just keep raising the bar higher for the rest of us to shoot at. Very impressive looking jigs.

Thank you Olgray, I appreciate the complement. I have tried to show jigs for ideas since this board was first started. I kind of got a head start on a lot of you guys, not all of you here as some have been at this a really long time and I have just been at it for something like 6 or 7 years. I can't even remember now if I started in 2005 or 2006 or possible even before this at 2004, but it was something like that. The one thing I know it info on how to tie is much more available now as I learned most when I started from the fly tying lessons on FAOL which is still a great source to learn different techniques.

Skip - Really glad to see you got the bead and blades figured out and putting them together!!!!!!!!!!! Your coming up with some nice color combo's and for anyone wanting to learn good solid tying techniques X2 with Skip on FAOL.
