Looks good. The fish should like it, too.

Good looking tie
I think it looks pretty good.
Thank you guys, very much. I'm going to work on it,( jig colors, and actual tying of this jig), some more over the next little bit of time. Maybe try some different materials mixed in...
No practice required, that is a fish catcher for sure.
Thank you GrumpyLoomis, my arthritic fingers giving me fits. Need to keep at it though. I appreciate the compliment.
Looks like a good jig and the guys in Louisiana would like that! They love them some kiptail!

Looks good to me too. Try this though, take a bare jig and use about a quarter of the amount of hair. It took me a long time to get comfortable using such a small amount of hair but it works very well. Be sure and take a bucket with you when you use the one you tied, you’re gonna need it.
Thank you Skeet, I appreciate the info. Making them smaller/ less full is a hard thing to do, but I do need to work on that. Thank you.Quote:

Beautiful……sim-ly beautiful. Well done. Your fingers are more nimble than first thought.
Not really, Those top 5 in the last picture was a royal pain. The little pits on the sides and bottom were started and restarted far too many times. Either the hair wouldn't stay put, or the thread went to the wrong place, didn't get it tight enough and it fell out. It's fun, but need more practice. Fingers don't move as nimble as they used to...but I am gonna keep at it...Thank you for the compliment by the way.Quote:
