New stuff for me to use making jigs, but I really like this better than any hair jigs I ever saw. I am a feather fan my self, but I will have to put some of these in my box. So what do you guys and gals think?

Those are sweet Skip. Bunny has a big following, must be something to it.
Good looking jigs Skip, I love working with bunny :)
Wow this is a blast from the past. I posted this 5 years ago, LOL! I do still have one heck of a lot of rabbit strips, heck a whole drawer full to the top. I just wish people wanted it more than they do, because It's great stuff plus I have a ton of it, LOL!Quote:

Crappie will hit this stuff too!
One more amazing thing, this post got more replies now 5 years later than it did when I first posted it, but think more people have now tried it too.
dandeman come by an time and maybe I can help your tying some anyway. Just let me know to make sure I am home, LOL!
Skip, They look like crappie catchers to me. Already have my order in Though.
Alot of folks are starting to use them now that they understand them better is my take on it. For tailing I like the regular zonker strips and bodies the crosscut - which I believe is going to help alot of folks who were ?? using them as they wrap really nice.
Theses are some of mine. The first two are regular zonkers the last one is a crosscut used for the body.

Since these are from so long ago I have changed a lot on what I like with them, but here are a few styles I like.

Love these pastel colors like this below and have some Blue and white I really like when the water clears a little.

Also am thinking of cutting down on how much of the crosscut I used on the lower pic. Just thinking about this.

skip i love those bunny jigs!!!!
Thanks YJ! I appreciate that.
Great looking jigs, I bet that hair(fur) would look like its swimming in the water. One could drop one of these jigs down, no cork , hold it steady and just let the waves or rocking of boat add all the action, be like hanging a piece of candy in front of one of my grand kids. Skip the third one down the blue one its color is very like the flash of color ones sees from the shad as they dart around. Are these on your web site/
I think they are Jack, I know they were, but can't be totally positive. I just got some new color blue I need to add on there that I think is the nest blue I ever saw. I will tie one today with it and pist it. It's just awesome!Quote:
