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.

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.
i like the 1st three the most
here is my yellow one
i do like your jigs i do alot in yellow alot in yellow and black and yellow and white some with red too
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":)
Nice jigs Rog.
Roger, you're my hero!! You know I like yellow!!! (hehehe)
One of my favorite jigs is hot orange head/coffee brown body/yellow marabou tail.
