Thanks everyone.I tie alot of flies in the spring for the bluegills and pretty new at jigs.Thought i could incorperate some of the flies ideas into jigs and it seems to work pretty good.I too like the palmered jigs and had decent luck with them this past summer.The first jig in the list was 1 of my go to jigs.When i couldnt get them to bite anything i could always catch 1 on the peacock and red.It also worked good with a black maribou tail.
