Here’s one done in white
These are some of the easiest ties to make and materials are easy to get,,,,this is the jumbo chewing gum chenille sold on eBay tails are what they call baitfish emulator , pearl flash,,,, it makes for some great contrast and easy to use materials…. big plus with not having to cut up hackle and finding that perfect chenille color to match,,, this stuff comes in a great variety of colors and even sizes,,, but jumbo is what I used on both the yellow chart jig 1/16 oz and red/ white in 1/8 oz sized jig,,,,
Looks great !
Those should have some nice action too with that bait fish emulator and flash for a tail.

Looks good. I love the different way that chenille looks. Liked that chenille since the first time I seen it. Love the hulk color one!
I just ordered what they call every color bulk shipment direct from Fnf fly fishing in UK,,,shipping was hefty, but all 13 jumbo colors was around $60 shipped,,,great deal considering what eBay charges for each color
sweet looking ties! like the color combos and you're right about the baitfish emulator being easy to work with. The only issue i have is using it as the sole tailing material, i'm not convinced of the profile/action being a plus. However, I am convinced that using a few pieces of it with hackle feather is productive. If you test any with just the emulator and get good results let us know. So far, I haven't....
Burdawg,,,I agree,,,only someone that tries them could tell me,,first time I used it, it was with some bucktail,,,hopefully it will produce on it own,,,,please try it out for me and let me know if it works,,, I don’t fish right now, so I can’t try it,,,
Very good job Takeum. They look really nice.
I didn’t know you could do that. Pretty cool.Quote:

Thanks Drew. Helps me with being too bored,,,,
Some difference color flash for tail….
Very nice fish catching colors. Well done.
That purple chartreuse combo is always in my box. A very hot crankbait color that was always in my spread. As always, some great looking ties. Good work.
