They look nice Rad. Where you gettin that chenille at?
They look great to me,I'll take a few of each.::cool::D

No pic (yet), but a recent tie I did was a yellow head, w/ black and yellow kiptail. I wasn't happy w/ the head (powder paint) - to much orange in it compared to the kiptail.
Your jig heads look more like want I was after. They look fine to me.

#1 is a Danville custom,I got from a friend.Ive gotten real close with one from BPS called Lt olive/rust varigated.But the one in the pic is much more chart/orange.
# 2 is tomato,which I havent found any where
# 3 Is BPS varigated Blk/yellow.
The powder paint is from an automotive supplier.I bet there is more than a thousand colors available.I think its as durable if not more so than Pro Tec, and is $10.00 per pound,instead of $8.00 for 2 OZ
I use a good bit of yellow and have my entire life. When I was a kid back in the 1950's and 1960's I use to love the old H&H Spinner baits in Yellow & Black.
Now I tie lots of yellow and Fl Yellow. I have it as the tail on my Christmas jig which has a FL Red Head/Green Body/FL Yellow tail. That is also a color Blakemore has had on their original Roadrunner with marabou tail and I have been buying them since the mid 1970's.
I actually like Black/Black Fl Yellow better than using FL Chartreuse tail. I also use Yellow head and tail on my Bumble Bee which has variegated Black & Yellow chenille.
Anyway that is a few.

Roger:
I like them, especially #2. If you are looking for tomato seed, then you need to email me, I have what you need. #3 will definetly work at Lake Stamford.

I like them all. I have some yellow I have been working with too. That and yellow with orange sprinkles. I really like them and I think they will work well here for both trout and crappie.
Thought you might recognize that tomato seed Ron,You sent me that sample awhile back.Let me know if you get ready to order some more,Id love to split some with you.Quote:

Its hard to see under that paint,but it is a gabulldog jighead !!
Yellow is good - the first - the best
Don't buy any chenille at BPS. Barlows has 72 yd. skeins of variegated chenille for under $10.00.
gotta love that Blk./yellow"man"! Think i saw the Tomato at Cabela's"once?Even had a jig w/ it made up somewhere"
I like the 1st one too the lemon pearl i guess ya call it"Rad":)
