natural looking minnow jigs patterns, post yours(pics)

I would like to see some of your natural looking minnow/bait-fish ties. allot of the jigs posted are nice but always seem rainbowish colorful. maybe you guys fish allot of muddy and stained waters. but i would like to see some patterns that are blacks, silvers, blues, greys or what ever. more realistic natural patterns for the most part. if you post a pic give a description of materials used. allot of guys post pics up and you have to figure on your own what materials/colors was used thanks guys! cant wait to see um! thanks

Almost all my water is a little stained. This is about as close to natural as I can get. Still have to have a little truce ! Attachment 194958

There is a Grey Ghost thread here somewhere. There are some great looking ties in there that are natural looking.

Those look great guys!

Is that tinsel sticking out long on your jigs?
I never implemented that in any of my ties yet. Only use Krystal flash.

Also What paint color is on those chrome looking heads?

Not sure if your asking me that, but if it is, yes I always try to make sure the flash extends just past the tail as it has action too. I also use Holographic Flashabou, the small original stuff, because I think it has more of that action than the wider stuff, but no proof on that. So I did tie a few this year to try using the wider stuff, but have not got to test it yet!

MS, some of those minnow heads look like some that Gary, Hunter7711 gave me years back. I still have some. Good looking ties everyone. I'll dig through the box and post when I get home.

Skeet,
That would be them. Mr G is my friend and mentor. I actually have his mold now and I fish those heads almost exclusively now.
Fished the swamp a couple weekends and found a few bigguns on this guy
