nice. What's the material? I like the beverage in the bottom pic also. hehe
Hey Crappie Kid,
As I've told you before, you do a very nice job. The crappies in NY won't know what hit them. They are in big trouble because they are heading for your frying pan. The eyes have it! Give then some catchy names like I did and send me some samples to field test for you in the Southern waters. It is 76 here today and no ice conditions. That should be a real test for them.
Take care.
Mike

They look fine to me, good job.
Looks good
Are You Interested In Selling Any Of Them???
You make some of the sickest hair jigs bar none, hands down!!!!!!! Good job:D
What kinda hair is that ? They look killer !
Whats the ratio of how many ale to jigs:D
nice jigs, and BTW I luv SA White.
Thanx for all the replies people..... We fish with these style of jigs up here and pound the callies on them.. Craft fur is what i mainly use but Calf/Kip and marabou is used alot too...
I look at alot of the jigs others tie on this site especially Ship's and i will be tying some up like them in the near future.. I like the way the chenile looks on them..
Ill be sending a few of you some pm's here shortly and we can discuss a few things.
Fri ill be tying some more so ill put up some more pics... Once again thanx for the replies and i hope one day ill get to fish with a few of you..

What kind of paint do you use?
I cannot find chartuese paint around here.
Those jigs look fantastic.
Well this is to answer everyones questions that have been asked.. I dont sell any of my jigs but i have received numerous PM's in regards to that so i will be making them available for sale once i get back in NY... I travel around the states quite a bit and wont be home until mid-late may.. When that time comes ill be able to take some time off and make as many as everyone would like.. I would like to thank everyone who has replied and sent pm's and i will let you know when i will be able to send you out some jigs... Right now im in ILL and will be leaving for SC sometime next week or so... I bring just enough jig heads with me to keep me occupied at night after work so its hard for me to bring everything that is needed to please everyones needs.. So bare with me and ill be ready to make mass quantity of jigs soon..
Zeke
Those are some of the best looking jigs I have seen!!
I'm impressed too !! New member here that was searching for high quality crappie and perch jigs. I stumbled across this thread and I have to say, those are the best looking paint jobs I've ever seen on a jig head.
How do you finish your jig heads so they look like the color is molded in and so glossy ? They look too nice to use but would sure dress up anyones tackle box :D
Thanks for sharing !
hey crppie kid you tie some good lookin jigs looks as if though you might be winding a bit fast i seen a couple with some of the thread out of whack a bit......Anyhow im gonna work on a video to show a way to help fix that problem.....when i get in hurry i still do it and i found a really cool way to fix it. Any on the hair i would switch to calf tail it will cut down a little of the action...but the rise and fall will be slower and we all know that thet falling of jig is what really sets them specks off. send me a PM i can hook you up with a guy who has a zillion kip tails in some pretty good colors.
I will be sending you a PM soon..... I only use Kip tail on the smaller jigs 1/80-1/120th oz.... The jigs you see in the picture are 1/16 and larger.. I like all the ideas and remarks... Cant wait to see your Video.. Thank you..Quote:

Crappie Kid. Can those painted jig heads be purchased from your friend ? Every time I look at your jig pictures, all I keep thinking is that I have to have some of those jig heads to tie my patterns on. Man they're sweet !Quote:

Some more bugs i made.... What do you think of these.. Mostly for brim but Callies love them too........
