They all look great.

Very cool. They look good. That should get them out of the brush!

These are all
Tied in and guards

You have more patience than I do for sure. I know that's something that one can do, but I would just prefer no guard and if I loose one, just tie on another one. Believe me after some 15 years of tying I have way too many jigs. However my boys have started fishing again so I will have to give them a bunch too.

Good job tying them with the weedless heads. Have you tries the Mono type that is tied in with the body?

I do a few now and then with one or two strands of 40 lb cheap mono. It is not hard at all. My other options are a CB Slider, or do as Skip suggests. I have a few 100 before I run out.

Those look good

I tie this double mono weedguard and hookup percentage is pretty good. This is a 1/8 × ×6 from my wacky head mold and use it for crappie. Attachment 367746

Just tie a loop of 12# mono on the shaft and let it hang off the back. Tie your pattern. Pull loop over body tie off at eye with several wraps and whip finish.

Sounds good
Going to try it now.
What about on really small jigs?
1/16, 1/24?

I had a bumble bee deer hair fly that is tied with one mono loop and it did very well for a lot of years. I finally hung it on a Lilly pad that I couldn’t get to and lost it. Fooling with those you’ll find what works best for what you use.

And that's pretty weedless? I have been doing a single mono 30# trying to be weedless while not making it hard for the fish mouth to deflect it. Interesting way... I will try that !
