Some nice wool

Went to a craft show with my wife today and a lady who makes sheepskin slippers had bags of clean wool on the tanned hide and got this for $2!! This is gonna make some nice wool and satin jigs

Nice grab buddy! Should make some fine stuff! Congrats!

A man could do some serious dubbing with some of that. Good find.

hey Doug! how ya been doing? thats a great score on that wool.

I've never seen anything done with any wool. Do you have any pictures?? My jigs are still VERY elementary.

I'll post some up tonight when I get home. Learned about tying them on another site - they're wool with satin fibers tied over top and they do work.

Scrapper - here's a few for you to see.

What kind of action do they have in the water?? Is it similar to marabou? Those are really sharp!! Thanks for sharing!

Those are nice Doug, good work.

I wouldn't say exactly like maribou but the satin fibers shimmer well. The first 8 colors of satin I bought only cost me about $4, and a little goes a long way.

Those look awesome. That motivates me to start tying. Been contiplating for a while. Seen too much of replicas of store bought lures. Unmotivational on the replicas due to you can buy. A bag of them for what a couple would cost to tie.
