I do like the jig it has a natural look to it good job.
Real nice Lift!!!!! That's the way I learned to tie em!! You should have no problem getting bit with those
Good job bud. With any luck I'll get to chase some brown fish in the morning.
Nice looking tie! Should work for you!
I have not been on much the last 5 days as most of that out of town.
That's a real beauty. I bet the smallies at Dale would hammer that bad boy!
Smallie killer there
That is one very good looking well tied minnow head jig. I am making a copy and going to put in my jig tying book for future reference.
Nice looking jig, what materials did you use?
Head, do it 1/16 minnow head with eye cavities mold, eyes 3.5 mm lure eyes (ed and Lisa Stanton) hook Mustad wide gap #4 bronze, The Build... first a small bundle of emerald green flashabou, on the top of the jig, from( hair line) , then 3 different craft hair, olive (Hairline) top, baby blue under (punisher) white (hairline) on the bottom, added silver crystal flash on rt and lf sides and then a few strands of royal blue crystal flash on each sides. here is the sequence, the flashabou (small bundle trimed,and capture on the top of the jig, then the white craft on the bottom capture with several wraps, then the baby blue craft hair on top of the flashabou, then capture to hold in place, small (shucked) bundles of the baby blue one on each side, then I add the crystal flash colors on each side and finish the top olive craft hair small amount (shucked) this is the process of removing the 3 layers of the ultra select craft hair, it comes with 3 different lengths. im using the middle size hair then trim off the back end flush to set against the jig head. now that I have totally confused you I hope this helps...I need to do a video showing this? process
that tie has a very natural look about it
I like it a lot
thank you for the info and explanation on tying it
