You know, there is something very gratifying about catching fish on lures you made yourself. I went out Saturday up to Bowie with some of my first hand-tied jigs and caught at least a limit. Only had about a dozen that were legal size, but caught a bunch over brush on a creek ledge in about 15 fow. Started with a gray jig, then went to gray/chart, black/chart, then orange/chart. Caught on all of them. Gray was best before the sun got up, then the orange/chart was best. Water was a little stained due to rain the day prior. I reckon I'm hopelessly hooked on tying my own jigs now!
