Thanks to Snake River, I’ve had some fun trying something new. Some of these are 1/24 #2 and some are 1/16 #4 sickle hooks.
The jelly bodies are super glued on only after I tied the marabou with thread. Some may say this is overkill, but I don’t want any of my jigs coming apart.
See Pictures below in separate post!
Skip, it hasn’t even been a year yet and I am in sooooo deep! I’m blaming each and every one here LOL!
Your attachments or not coming up .
I actually saw a plastics mold someone had made were you place completed jig in mold then inject plastic. Results same. Plastics is a whole other ballgame though.
Every time I come up with a great idea, I get into trouble.
Looks good, but no Chartreuse bodies? Deep in huh, think I warned you about that, LMAO!

Bob fixed me up with lots of good options, just haven’t tried them all yet [emoji16]

I forgot. What's the trick to get the plastic over the Marabou ?
I'd like to make one in Electric Chicken colors.
Shipahoy has a sticky about jelly jigs at the top of this forum.
I can't open the pictures. Says third party hosting blocked?
Those look good
That's because he had them "hosted" (stored) in Photobucket ... and Photobucket decided it was losing $$ on it's "free" hosting service, so it stopped allowing people to share their photos on third party websites unless they paid a bunch of money for the "free" service. Those that did not sign up & pay lost the links to all their pics that were posted on 3rd party websites. Even those of us that downloaded all our Photobucket pics back into our computers & closed our accounts ... still lost the links to most all of our previously posted pics. That's what those "blocked" banners represent.Quote:

Looks like you have enough colors, lol! Now stop using Photobucket as they are crooks IMHO!
Just upload your pictures you want to post to this site.

I haven’t used PhotoBucket for a long time. There must have been some sort of glitch when I initially created this post.
Thanks Skip for fixing it!
Stunning set of jigs
Skip, the first two patterns are for you [emoji16]

So not being able to see the photobucket stuff and I understanding you use a crochet hook or large sewing needle to pull the marabout through the jelly belly?
Yeah, that’s basically it. Maybe if you PM skeetbum41 he will send you his pics? I read his and Snake River’s posts and then just kind of played around with it.
I modified the process a bit by actually tying the marabou to the hook after threading it through the body and threading the body onto the hook.
It’s a bit tricky to get a sickle hook to exit correctly due to the tight curves near the point.
